lidar_point_stats: Lidar point stats

In whitebox: 'WhiteboxTools' R Frontend

Description

Creates several rasters summarizing the distribution of LAS point data. When the input/output parameters are not specified, the tool works on all LAS files contained within the working directory.

Usage

lidar_point_stats(input, resolution = 1, num_points = TRUE,
  num_pulses = FALSE, avg_points_per_pulse = TRUE, z_range = FALSE,
  intensity_range = FALSE, predom_class = FALSE,
  verbose_mode = FALSE)

Arguments

input	Input LiDAR file.
resolution	Output raster's grid resolution.
num_points	Flag indicating whether or not to output the number of points (returns) raster.
num_pulses	Flag indicating whether or not to output the number of pulses raster.
avg_points_per_pulse	Flag indicating whether or not to output the average number of points (returns) per pulse raster.
z_range	Flag indicating whether or not to output the elevation range raster.
intensity_range	Flag indicating whether or not to output the intensity range raster.
predom_class	Flag indicating whether or not to output the predominant classification raster.
verbose_mode	Sets verbose mode. If verbose mode is False, tools will not print output messages.

Value

Returns the tool text outputs.
