Individual tree detection

Source: R/lidar_analysis.R
wbt_individual_tree_detection.Rd

Identifies points in a LiDAR point cloud that are associated with the tops of individual trees.

Usage

wbt_individual_tree_detection(
  input,
  output = NULL,
  min_search_radius = 1,
  min_height = 0,
  max_search_radius = "",
  max_height = "",
  only_use_veg = FALSE,
  wd = NULL,
  verbose_mode = NULL,
  compress_rasters = NULL,
  command_only = FALSE
)

Arguments

input

Name of the input LiDAR file.

output

Name of the output vector points file.

min_search_radius

Minimum search radius (m).

min_height

Minimum height (m).

max_search_radius

Maximum search radius (m).

max_height

Maximum height (m).

only_use_veg

Only use veg. class points?.

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.
