In pattern recognition and scene analysis, there are many occasions when we want to determine whether a digital arc is straight or not. For many applications such as the production of cartographic data bases, waveform analysis and perimeter estimation, it is preferable to access the curve as a set of connected straight lines or a polygonal line. Simple schemes for converting the digital curve into this form are useful.
