Résumé : The aim of this paper is to examine why a touch of geomorphological analysis of landscapes should be introduced in vegetation mapping procedures, and how. A study of the various vegetation maps is sufficient to show that they are not generally based on geomorphological analyses and zoning. Two questions then arise : what would the introduction of such an analysis give, and how to introduce it ? A critical examination of FAO's recommendations, and a study of a few concrete examples, would help answer the first question before giving practical suggestions on how to implement geomorphological analysis
