Shore detection for water surfaces

I have implemented a jump flooding method that can convert seeds into voronoi diagrams (look it up in the pixeljunk shooter paper), and next I want to make it work with landscape edges. All I should have to do is render the heightmap into an RT and detect pixels that straddle the waterZ (like sobel method) and encode those pixels as seeds and every other pixel as black and then run the jump flood. Fingers crossed. If I get something good I will share it with you guys.

That sounds really interesting Ryan, I would love to hear more about it when you have the time!
