Abstract
A pattern shape evaluation method comprising detecting an edge of an evaluation target pattern from an image of the evaluation target pattern to output the edge as a first edge, detecting an edge of a reference pattern from an image of the reference pattern to output the edge as a second edge, performing a relative scan of the first edge and the second edge to superpose the first edge onto the second edge, and outputting a resulting edge as a third edge, calculating a characteristic amount indicating characteristics of the third edge from the third edge, and deriving a characteristic amount function which provides the characteristic amount against relative coordinates in the relative scan and comparing the characteristic amount function with a preset value to judge whether or not the evaluation target pattern is good.
