Breach depressions least cost — wbt_breach_depressions_least

Breaches the depressions in a DEM using a least-cost pathway method.

Usage

wbt_breach_depressions_least_cost(
  dem,
  output,
  dist,
  max_cost = NULL,
  min_dist = TRUE,
  flat_increment = NULL,
  fill = TRUE,
  wd = NULL,
  verbose_mode = NULL,
  compress_rasters = NULL,
  command_only = FALSE
)

Arguments

dem: Input raster DEM file.
output: Output raster file.
dist: Maximum search distance for breach paths in cells.
max_cost: Optional maximum breach cost (default is Inf).
min_dist: Optional flag indicating whether to minimize breach distances.
flat_increment: Optional elevation increment applied to flat areas.
fill: Optional flag indicating whether to fill any remaining unbreached depressions.
wd: Changes the working directory. Default: NULL will use the value in WhiteboxTools settings, see wbt_wd() for details.
verbose_mode: Sets verbose mode. If verbose mode is FALSE, tools will not print output messages. Default: NULL will use the value in WhiteboxTools settings, see wbt_verbose() for details.
compress_rasters: Sets the flag used by 'WhiteboxTools' to determine whether to use compression for output rasters. Default: NULL will use the value in WhiteboxTools settings, see wbt_compress_rasters() for details.
command_only: Return command that would be executed by system() rather than running tool. Default: FALSE.

Value

Returns the tool text outputs.
