Fractal dimension of coastline of Australia

Abstract: Coastlines are irregular in nature having (random) fractal geometry and are formed by various natural activities. Fractal dimension is a measure of degree of geometric irregularity present in the coastline. A novel multicore parallel processing algorithm is presented to calculate the fractal dimension of coastline of Australia. The reliability of the coastline length of Australia is addressed by recovering the power law from our computational results. For simulations, the algorithm is implemented on a parallel… Show more

“…For instance, a line is a 1-dimensional object, a square is 2 dimensional, and a cube is a 3-dimensional object; however, this definition is not adequate to describe fractal objects. Fractal dimension is a (typically non-integer) number that can be associated with every natural, random, and manufactured fractal to measure or quantify the complexity of the fractal relative to the space in which it lives [5,[8][9][10][11].…”

“…I. Shokin, V. P. Potapov [1], a brief analysis of the current state of geoinformation systems is given and promising directions of their development based on modern information technologies (cloud and intelligent systems, big data processing methods) are considered, examples of specific implementations are given in relation to solving problems of mining regions. The pace of development and development of geoinformation systems and technologies can be traced in [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

“…The use of fractal geometry by image analysis relies a lot on the estimation of fractal dimension (D), a key parameter introduced by Mandelbrot (1982) [19] in order to measure the irregularity of complex objects. Since then, several methods have been proposed to compute the fractal dimension of topographic surfaces or the image intensity surfaces [18,[20][21][22][23].…”
