lidar_point_density: Lidar point density

Description

Calculates the spatial pattern of point density for a LiDAR data set. When the input/output parameters are not specified, the tool grids all LAS files contained within the working directory.

Usage

lidar_point_density(input, output = NULL, returns = "all",
  resolution = 1, radius = 2.5, exclude_cls = NULL, minz = NULL,
  maxz = NULL, verbose_mode = FALSE)

Arguments

input

Input LiDAR file (including extension).

output

Output raster file (including extension).

returns

Point return types to include; options are 'all' (default), 'last', 'first'.

resolution

Output raster's grid resolution.

radius

Search Radius.

exclude_cls

Optional exclude classes from interpolation; Valid class values range from 0 to 18, based on LAS specifications. Example, --exclude_cls='3,4,5,6,7,18'.

minz

Optional minimum elevation for inclusion in interpolation.

maxz

Optional maximum elevation for inclusion in interpolation.

verbose_mode

Sets verbose mode. If verbose mode is False, tools will not print output messages.

Value

Returns the tool text outputs.
