It commonly happens when two contour lines which should touch are drawn so that they leave a little space in between. Such an arrangement may not be visible in a printed atlas but it greatly disturbs tracing process where every pixel may influence the results. In this case the structure being traced overtakes the space of its neighbour through the broken contour which we call leaking of the structure (see figure below). … … 19 16 Consecutive flood-filled areas are dilated the same number of times as the boundaries were grown to make the area of the resulting path unbiased. If it remains stable or slightly lowers (less than 2% in our implementation) at consecutive stages of the algorithm it means that most probably the boundaries of the structure in question do not have any gaps (see Fig. 3). 20 17 21 === Structures without gaps ===22 23 18 [[Image(debug_460_461_VO_step_0-anim-AOP.gif)]] 24 19 … … 32 27 || 5 || 51112 || 33 28 34 35 === Leaking strutcures ===36 29 37 30 [[Image(debug_460_461_VO_step_0-anim-VO.gif)]]
