Cover Story: The identification and monitoring of existing surface water bodies on Earth is important in many scientific disciplines and for different industrial uses. The objective of this study is to establish and validate a method to distinguish efficiently between water and land zones using high-resolution satellite images. The adopted method is based on image segmentation plus fractal dimension analysis of the resulting tiles. The proposed scheme is particularly simple and computationally efficient compared with heavy artificial-intelligence-based methods. The results of a practical case study show that the adopted method is able to detect surface water with an average accuracy of 96.03%.
