Description

Calculates a D8 flow accumulation raster from an input DEM or flow pointer.

Usage

wbt_d8_flow_accumulation(
  input,
  output,
  out_type = "cells",
  log = FALSE,
  clip = FALSE,
  pntr = FALSE,
  esri_pntr = FALSE,
  wd = NULL,
  verbose_mode = FALSE,
  compress_rasters = FALSE
)

Arguments

input

Input raster DEM or D8 pointer file.

output

Output raster file.

out_type

Output type; one of 'cells' (default), 'catchment area', and 'specific contributing area'.

log

Optional flag to request the output be log-transformed.

clip

Optional flag to request clipping the display max by 1 percent.

pntr

Is the input raster a D8 flow pointer rather than a DEM?.

esri_pntr

Input D8 pointer uses the ESRI style scheme.

wd

Changes the working directory.

verbose_mode

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

compress_rasters

Sets the flag used by WhiteboxTools to determine whether to use compression for output rasters.
