R Documentation

Get DTM or DSM data for a given 10km Ordnance Survey (OS) tile name(s)

Description

This function downloads Raster data from the DEFRA portal https://environment.data.gov.uk/DefraDataDownload/?Mode=survey. It retrieves all available data within the requested area defined by OS_10km_tile and offers some additional functionality to merge and crop the raster if desired. This function uses the get_area function to extract all requested tiles.

Usage

get_OS_tile_10km(
  OS_10km_tile,
  resolution,
  model_type,
  chrome_version = NULL,
  merge_tiles = TRUE,
  dest_folder = NULL,
  out_name = NULL,
  ras_format = "GTiff",
  headless_chrome = TRUE,
  check_selenium = TRUE
)

Arguments

`OS_10km_tile`	A vector of type character containing the names of the desired 5km Tiles. e.g. 'NY20' or c('NY20','NY20').
