We can see in Google maps terrains, the color transportation trait for the different colored sediments.
No terrain software has the color transportation option, so I decided to develop a tool to replicate this feature.

Below we can see how this feature looks from the eye level.

Implementation
Below are diffuse color variations for the same terrain.
I have used different terrain masks, like debris, sediment, flow, slope, etc. to build complexity.
