A comparison of ridge detections for terrain maps on homogeneous rectangular dissections

It is important to sharpen features such as ridges for effective displaying of 3D terrain maps. This paper deals with a ridge detection method. In previous works, the steepest ascent method is known as a ridge detection method. In this paper, we will improve the steepest ascent method in triangular dissections.
