Max anisotropy dev — wbt_max_anisotropy

Calculates the maximum anisotropy (directionality) in elevation deviation over a range of spatial scales.

Usage

wbt_max_anisotropy_dev(
  dem,
  out_mag,
  out_scale,
  max_scale,
  min_scale = 3,
  step = 2,
  wd = NULL,
  verbose_mode = NULL,
  compress_rasters = NULL,
  command_only = FALSE
)

Arguments

dem: Input raster DEM file.
out_mag: Output raster DEVmax magnitude file.
out_scale: Output raster DEVmax scale file.
max_scale: Maximum search neighbourhood radius in grid cells.
min_scale: Minimum search neighbourhood radius in grid cells.
step: Step size as any positive non-zero integer.
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.
