)Input raster DEM file.
Input vector polygons file.
Output raster file.
Search distance used to reposition transportation vectors onto road embankments (in map units).
Minimum road width; this is the width of the paved road surface (in map units).
Typical embankment width; this is the maximum width of an embankment with roadside ditches (in map units).
Typical embankment maximum height; this is the height a typical embankment with roadside ditches (in map units).
Maximum embankment width, typically where embankments traverse steep-sided valleys (in map units).
Maximum upwards increment between neighbouring cells on an embankment (in elevation units).
Spillout slope (in degrees).
Optional flag indicating whether to output a DEM with embankments removed (true) or an embankment raster map (false).
Changes the working directory.
Sets verbose mode. If verbose mode is False, tools will not print output messages.
Sets the flag used by WhiteboxTools to determine whether to use compression for output rasters.
Returns the tool text outputs.
