IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING PROGRAM

An image processing apparatus and an image processing program capable of sufficiently representing changes in undulations of a water surface without deforming the surface of an object. A water surface object B is so set as to be larger than a water surface area to be actually represented and to has undulations formed in the neighborhood of a boundary line portion meeting a land object A. The place position is determined so that the position of this entire water surface object B is moved at predetermined time (frame) intervals. Thus, it is possible to change in shape only the boundary portion where the water surface and the land meet, and to represent undulations of the water surface as if water is undulating. Furthermore, the shapes of polygons composing the water surface object B are not individually changed, but the entire water surface object B having a particular shape is moved. Therefore, the amount of computation in image processing necessary for representing undulations of the water surface becomes small.
