Breach Depressions Least Cost
Generates a flow accumulation grid that shows how much water flows through each part of a landscape. It uses the D8 algorithm, which directs water from each cell to only one neighboring cell that is lower down.
Input parameters
- Input raster DEM or D8 pointer file – Select the file that will be generated into a grid.
Output parameters
- Output raster file – Enter the name for the new generated grid.
- Output type; one of 'cells' (default), 'catchment area', and 'specific contributing area' – Select the type of grid you want to be generated.
