The main objective of this dissertation is to investigate alternative methods for converting GIS data representing terrain traversability conditions into a connectivity graph representation, enabling the determination of optimum terrain traversal paths, and implement them in the GIS environment. In addition to implementing variations of the conventional grid-based approach, an alternative grid-based method as well as a vector-based method for terrain path optimization is proposed and implemented in this study. Furthermore, special emphasis is put on the post processing of terrain paths.
