Description Usage Arguments Details Value

Calculates topographic least cost distances and paths with an assymetric adjacent matrix

AdjTopoLCP(
  DTM,
  costSurface,
  slopeRdCond,
  pts,
  directions = 8,
  paths = TRUE,
  zweight = 1,
  advancedloggingparameters = loggingparameters()
)

`DTM`	A RasterLayer for digital terrain model (DTM) data.
`costSurface`	A RasterLayer for the conductance (inverse of resistance) values for each cell.
`slopeRdCond`	A categorical transition layer of longitudinal and transversal slope.
`pts`	A SpatialPointsDataFrame object or two-column matrix with xy coordinates for the geographic points from which to calculate pairwise distances and paths.
`directions`	numeric (default = 8). The number of directions for movement between cells, either 4 or 8.
`paths`	logical. Default is FALSE, in which case only topographic distances are calculated. If TRUE, topographic paths are also identified.
`zweight`	numeric (default = 1). The weight to be applied to the elevation (z) distances relative to the horizontal (xy) distances.
`advancedloggingparameters`	Other parameters of the logging simulator

The values of the raster for costSurface should be conductance values rather than resistance values. These can be calculating by taking the inverse of resistance values.

Matrix of topographic distances (if paths = FALSE), or a list containing a matrix of topographic distances and the topographic paths as an object of class SpatialLines (if paths = TRUE).
