Removes outliers (high and low points) in a LiDAR point cloud.

Usage

wbt_lidar_remove_outliers(
  input,
  output,
  radius = 2,
  elev_diff = 50,
  use_median = FALSE,
  classify = TRUE,
  wd = NULL,
  verbose_mode = NULL,
  compress_rasters = NULL,
  command_only = FALSE
)

Arguments

input: Input LiDAR file.
output: Output LiDAR file.
radius: Search Radius.
elev_diff: Max. elevation difference.
use_median: Optional flag indicating whether to use the difference from median elevation rather than mean.
classify: Classify points as ground (2) or off-ground (1).
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.
