Lidar digital surface model — wbt_lidar_digital_surface

Creates a top-surface digital surface model (DSM) from a LiDAR point cloud.

Usage

wbt_lidar_digital_surface_model(
  input,
  output = NULL,
  resolution = 1,
  radius = 0.5,
  minz = NULL,
  maxz = NULL,
  max_triangle_edge_length = NULL,
  wd = NULL,
  verbose_mode = NULL,
  compress_rasters = NULL,
  command_only = FALSE
)

Arguments

input: Input LiDAR file (including extension).
output: Output raster file (including extension).
resolution: Output raster's grid resolution.
radius: Search Radius.
minz: Optional minimum elevation for inclusion in interpolation.
maxz: Optional maximum elevation for inclusion in interpolation.
max_triangle_edge_length: Optional maximum triangle edge length; triangles larger than this size will not be gridded.
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.
