rcrisp: Automate the Delineation of Urban River Spaces

Provides tools to automate the morphological delineation of riverside urban areas based on a method introduced in Forgaci (2018) <doi:10.7480/abe.2018.31>. Delineation entails the identification of corridor boundaries, segmentation of the corridor, and delineation of the river space using two-dimensional spatial information from street network data and digital elevation data in a projected CRS. The resulting delineation can be used to characterise spatial phenomena that can be related to the river as a central element.
