An Auto-Detection and classification algorithm for identification of sand dunes based on remote sensing images

Dunes are among the most abundant aeolian landforms found on Earth and other planets. The automatic mapping of dunes over large-scale areas is crucial for predicting, monitoring, and managing lands threatened by sand encroachment. However, the spectral similarity between dune and inter-dune areas, a...
