wbt_lidar_contour: Lidar contour

Description

This tool creates a vector contour coverage from an input LiDAR point file.

Usage

wbt_lidar_contour(
  input,
  output = NULL,
  interval = 10,
  smooth = 5,
  parameter = "elevation",
  returns = "all",
  exclude_cls = NULL,
  minz = NULL,
  maxz = NULL,
  max_triangle_edge_length = NULL,
  wd = NULL,
  verbose_mode = FALSE,
  compress_rasters = FALSE
)

Arguments

input

Name of the input LiDAR points.

output

Name of the output vector lines file.

interval

Contour interval.

smooth

Smoothing filter size (in num. points), e.g. 3, 5, 7, 9, 11.

parameter

Interpolation parameter; options are 'elevation' (default), 'intensity', 'user_data'.

returns

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

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.

max_triangle_edge_length

Optional maximum triangle edge length; triangles larger than this size will not be gridded.

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.

Value

Returns the tool text outputs.
