Multiscale curvatures

Description

This tool calculates several multiscale curvatures and curvature-based indices from an input DEM.

Usage

wbt_multiscale_curvatures(
  dem,
  out_mag,
  curv_type = "ProfileCurv",
  out_scale = NULL,
  min_scale = 0,
  step = 1,
  num_steps = 1,
  step_nonlinearity = 1,
  log = TRUE,
  standardize = FALSE,
  wd = NULL,
  verbose_mode = NULL,
  compress_rasters = NULL,
  command_only = FALSE
)

Arguments

`dem`	Name of the input raster DEM file.
`out_mag`	Output raster magnitude file.
`curv_type`	Curvature type.
`out_scale`	Output raster scale file.
`min_scale`	Minimum search neighbourhood radius in grid cells.
`step`	Step size as any positive non-zero integer.
`num_steps`	Number of steps.
`step_nonlinearity`	Step nonlinearity factor (1.0-2.0 is typical).
`log`	Display output values using a log-scale.
`standardize`	Should each scale be standardized to z-scores?.
`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`.
