Miroc is a mountain in Eastern Serbia placed between Donji Milanovac and Tekija in Negotinska Krajina. The highest mountain summit is Veliki Strbac, 768 metres above sea level. Miroc is the most protruding part of Eastern Serbia and the most western part of the Djerdap Mountain Massive. The mountain is surrounded by the Danube from all the sides. Miroc Mountain, Veliki and Mali Srbac, the Danube River, the Djerdap Gorge, Veliki and Mali Kazan are the real place of world permeation both on land and in the water. This embraces the territory of nearly 500 km2. Fractal Geometry is a sort of new language used for describing, modeling or analyzing complex shapes in nature. A fractal is a diminished unity copy; the type that resembles itself. The work objective is to show the possibility of using computer analyses as well as the programme languages Python, C++, GIS software, Global Mapper 15.2 and QGIS/a in the example of Miroc Mountain morphometric features.
