Compute a "calving front width" attribute for glaciers #2

Open fmaussion opened 4 years ago

fmaussion commented 4 years ago

Based on the glacier outline and a DEM (e.g. from RGItopo), one could compute "a" calving front width with some simple algorithm of "continuous front withing elevation thresholds".

@fmaussion will be happy to help get you started on this project.
