Value

Returns the tool text outputs.

Arguments

input: Name of the input digital surface model (DSM) raster file.
output: Name of the output raster file.
palette: DSM image palette; options are 'atlas', 'high_relief', 'arid', 'soft', 'muted', 'light_quant', 'purple', 'viridi', 'gn_yl', 'pi_y_g', 'bl_yl_rd', 'deep', and 'none'.
max_dist: Optional maximum search distance, in xy unites. Minimum value is 5 x cell size.
date: Date in format DD/MM/YYYY.
time: Time in format HH::MM, e.g. 03:15AM or 14:30.
location: Location, defined as Lat/Long/UTC-offset (e.g. 43.5448/-80.2482/-4).
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.
