Description

Thins a LiDAR point cloud, reducing point density.

Usage

wbt_lidar_thin(
  input,
  output,
  resolution = 2,
  method = "lowest",
  save_filtered = FALSE,
  wd = NULL,
  verbose_mode = NULL,
  compress_rasters = NULL,
  command_only = FALSE
)

Arguments

`input`	Input LiDAR file.
`output`	Output LiDAR file.
`resolution`	The size of the square area used to evaluate nearby points in the LiDAR data.
`method`	Point selection method; options are 'first', 'last', 'lowest' (default), 'highest', 'nearest'.
`save_filtered`	Save filtered points to separate file?.
`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`.
