    • calcThresh.R:

      Automatic thresholding function for greyscale images

      Based on:

      Kittler, J. and Illingworth, J. 1986. Minimum Error Thresholding. Pattern Recognition 19 (1): 41-47

      Twele, A., Cao, W., Plank, S., Martinis, S. 2016. Sentinel-1-based flood mapping: a fully automated processing chain. International journal of remote sensing 37 (13: 2990-3004)

      Note: This modified Kittler & Illingworth method was adapted in favour of the 2-d Otsu method which had unsatisfying initial results.

  • g-earthengine:
