The model was developed using the following procedures:(1) a high-pass spatial filter algorithm was applied to detect linear features,(2) morphological processing was used to remove unwanted linear features,(3) the raster format was vectorized,(4) the vectorized linear features were split per hectare(ha) and each line was then classified according to its compass directionand(5) the sum of all vector lengths per class of direction per ha was calculated. Finallythe direction class with the greatest length was selected from each ha to predict the physical SWC structures. The model was calibrated and validated on the Ethiopian Highlands. The model correctly mapped 80% of the existing structures. The developed model was then tested at different sites with different topography. The results show that the developed model is feasible for automated mapping of physical SWC structures.
