Researchers at the Canada Centre for Remote Sensing are working on a tool for the automated extraction of water body outlines from radar imagery. This tool quickly generates [Geographic Information System] GIS-ready water polygons that can be used by water resource managers such as those with Parks Canada and Environment Canada. Currently the tool is called FnFCE (Forest non-Forest Class Extraction). The name comes from its origins as a forestry application. 1, record 1, English, - forest%20non%2Dforest%20class%20extraction

L'outil permet de générer rapidement des polygones de plans d'eau compatibles avec les SIG [Système d'information géographique] et que peuvent utiliser les gestionnaires des ressources en eau, notamment à Parcs Canada et à Environnement Canada. Il s'agit de la méthode FnFCE (Forest non-Forest Class Extraction) (extraction par classe forestière/non forestière) qui tire son nom de son domaine d'application original. 1, record 1, French, - extraction%20par%20classe%20foresti%C3%A8re%2Fnon%20foresti%C3%A8re
