Automatic Mapping of Small Lunar Impact Craters Using LRO‐NAC Images
Abstract Impact craters are the most common feature on the Moon’s surface. Crater size–frequency distributions provide critical insight into the timing of geological events, surface erosion rates, and impact fluxes. The impact crater size–frequency follows a power law (meter‐sized craters are a few...
