# First, get a matrix from your image. Here an example of a bush image is used.
bush<-system.file("extdata/bush.JPG",package ="bwimage")
bush_imagematrix<-threshold_color(bush, "jpeg", "proportional", compress_rate = 0.1)

# See the proportion of black pixels (1) below each bush image matrix row
topline(bush_imagematrix,100,100)
# Conclusion: topline size is 785.6 cm.
