Abstract
The aim of the article was to verify the possibility of using open source digital image analysis software to determine the particle shape. Devices using laser diffraction or dynamic image analysis could be used to determine size and shape of particles. However, the laboratory devices for digital image analysis are relatively expensive. For this reason, it was decided to use open source digital image analysis software Fiji Is just ImageJ and mobile phone with a 12 Mpx camera. Coarse aggregates of basalt and granite were used in the study. Flakiness index (FI) and shape index (SI) were determined using two methods: in accordance with the European Standard and with the use of digital image analysis (reference method). Based on the obtained results it was found that there is an appropriate relationship between the European Standard method and the reference method.
