	abstract = {The study presents a geomorphological overview of Greece at a 1:1,000,000 scale, marking the first national cartographic synthesis effort to interpret geological and geomorphological factors shaping the country{\textquoteright}s landscape. The geomorphological map was developed through a literature review of prior studies at varying scales and semi-automated GIS techniques. High-resolution topographic data and 1:50,000 geological maps were integrated into a spatial geodatabase. Secondary layers, including a hillshade map, slope-aspect map, and red relief image map, were created and combined with Google Earth imagery to delineate landforms. These were categorized by primary formative processes into structural, fluvial, gravity-induced, coastal, karst, volcanic, glacial and periglacial. Additional maps and tables were produced, detailing topographic parameters, geotectonic setting, and climatic regime. The results highlight Greece{\textquoteright}s diverse geomorphological environments, shaped by active tectonics and surface processes. The map represents recent geomorphological advancements and serves as a management tool for stakeholders and a reference for interdisciplinary research.},
