Rpeak: Example script that can be used as a wrapper function to...
In gisma/perfectPeak: Calculates the perfect peaks

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

Organises all necessary processing steps for calculating the perfect peak parameters and generating the output. It performs preprocessing and controls the calculations of dominance, prominence, independence (E) value for a given georeferencend Digital Elevation Model (DEM)

You can use the function as it is or alternatively use it as skeleton control script that you may adapt to your needs.

1	Rpeak(fname.control,fname.DEM)

`fname.control`	name of control file containing all setting and parameters for analysis
`fname.DEM`	name Digtial Elevation Model has to be a GDAL raster file

peaklist with ycoord ycoord,altitude,dominance,prominence,independence name generates some output (maps and tables)

#### Example to use Rpeak for a common analysis of the 
    dominance, prominenece and independence values of an specifified area

# You need a georeferenced DEM (GDAL format) as data input. 
# All parameters are read from the control INI file - use the 'demo.ini' as a template  
# NOTE the existing projection of the data file has to be exactly the same 
# as provided in target.proj4  variable in the ini file
