This tool creates an animated GIF of multi-scale local topographic position (elevation deviation).

Usage

wbt_topographic_position_animation(
  input,
  output,
  palette = "bl_yl_rd",
  min_scale = 1,
  num_steps = 100,
  step_nonlinearity = 1.5,
  height = 600,
  delay = 250,
  label = "",
  dev_max = FALSE,
  wd = NULL,
  verbose_mode = NULL,
  compress_rasters = NULL,
  command_only = FALSE
)

Arguments

input

Name of the input digital elevation model (DEM) raster file.

output

Name of the output HTML file (*.html).

palette

Image palette; options are 'bl_yl_rd', 'bl_w_rd', 'purple', 'gn_yl', 'pi_y_g', and 'viridis'.

min_scale

Minimum search neighbourhood radius in grid cells.

num_steps

Number of steps.

step_nonlinearity

Step nonlinearity factor (1.0-2.0 is typical).

height

Image height, in pixels.

delay

GIF time delay in milliseconds.

label

Label text (leave blank for none).

dev_max

Do you want to use DEVmax instead of DEV for measuring local topographic position?.

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.
