You can filter and smooth maps, perform automatic watershed segmentation (but generally after the automatic part you would still need to do things manually -- it is not meant to be completely automatic), create surfaces and mask to those surfaces, color zones to match nearby markers, manually "erase" parts of the map,  etc.
