Identifies ground points within LiDAR point clouds using a segmentation based approach.

Usage

wbt_lidar_segmentation_based_filter(
  input,
  output,
  radius = 5,
  norm_diff = 2,
  maxzdiff = 1,
  classify = FALSE,
  wd = NULL,
  verbose_mode = NULL,
  compress_rasters = NULL,
  command_only = FALSE
)

Arguments

input

Input LiDAR file.

output

Output file.

radius

Search Radius.

norm_diff

Maximum difference in normal vectors, in degrees.

maxzdiff

Maximum difference in elevation (z units) between neighbouring points of the same segment.

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.

Value

Returns the tool text outputs.
