Terrain Segmentation

Terrain Segmentation is a geomorphometric procedure that partitions a digital terrain model into spatially contiguous and topographically homogeneous regions based on morphological attributes, thereby distinguishing it from other terrain classification methods by its focus on spatial coherence and local geometric similarity.
