===============
Contour finding
===============
We use a marching squares method to find constant valued contours in an image.
In ``skimage.measure.find_contours``, array values are linearly interpolated
to provide better precision of the output contours. Contours which intersect
the image edge are open; all others are closed.
The `marching squares algorithm
<http://users.polytech.unice.fr/~lingrand/MarchingCubes/algo.html>`__ is a
special case of the marching cubes algorithm (Lorensen, William and Harvey
E. Cline. Marching Cubes: A High Resolution 3D Surface Construction Algorithm.
Computer Graphics SIGGRAPH 87 Proceedings) 21(4) July 1987, p. 163-170).
