 abstract={Statistical moments have been used in different applications as in shape analysis of object, pattern recognition, edge detection texture analysis etc. The idea is to use the moments as features of high level for surface matching. The essential goal of surface matching is to determine transformation parameters between two surfaces generated in TIN or DEM without identical points. Statistical moments are considered as features that are applied to solve that goal, One of the main problems with using statistical moments for surface matching and for other applications is a very expensive computation time. To overcome this difficulty many algorithms have already been proposed. New approach of efficient computation of inertial moments for surface matching is proposed in the paper. The approach is based on Green's theorem that allows for transforming double integral into a line integral. In the consequence computation time of inertial moments of a single TIN-model (triangle) is reduced by a factor 4 as compared with time consumed by the use of direct method of double integral. The direct computation using line integral, that does not involve any approximation, ensures preservation of the accuracy of computed moments.},
