Computes and uses relative relief across three moving kernel sizes to automatically extract the following coastal landforms:

  • shoreline (based on elevation threshold)
  • dune toe
  • dune crest
  • dune heel (equivalent to the dune toe on the lee side of the dune)
  • back barrier shoreline (based on elevation threshold)

Default thresholds are included in the program but open to user-interpretation and change. See original manuscript in Geomorphology for more information on how to tune the parameters.
