Identifying the Dimensions of Degraded Impact Structures Using Digital Elevation Models: A Proof of Concept for Silicate Planets

Determining the physical dimensions of hypervelocity impact structures is challenging due to erosion of their primary relief features on Earth. Critical measurements, such as outer rim diameter, are important for estimating the kinetic energy released and subsequent environmental effects. We develop...
