AbstractThe
main objective of this research is to utilize
the Fuzzy arithmetic for constructing coastal
geomorphology features such as spite coastal
dunes from RADARSAT-1 SAR images. In doing so,
co-occurrence texture algorithms have integrated
with Fuzzy B-spline model which construct a
global topological structure between the data
points, used to support an approximation of real
surface. The output of the Fuzzy and
co-occurrence texture algorithms was a digital
terrain model for coastal geomorphology of Kuala
Terengganu Malaysia. This paper describes the
principles behind the Fuzzy algorithm, indicates
for what type of application it might be useful,
notes on the accuracy and gives an example of an
application.
