Rho8 Flow Accumulation
This tool calculates a flow accumulation grid (i.e. contributing area) using the Rho8 algorithm. This method is a single-flow-direction (SFD) approach, meaning that flow from each grid cell is directed to a single downslope neighbor, without allowing flow divergence.
Input parameters
- Input raster DEM or Rho8 pointer file; if a DEM is used, it must be depressionless – Select the file that will be modified.
Output parameters
- Name of the output raster file – Enter the name for the new raster.
- Output type; one of 'cells', 'specific contributing area' (default), and 'catchment area' – tbd
- Log-transform the output values? – tbd
- Optional flag to request clipping the display max by 1% – tbd
- Is the input raster a Rho8 flow pointer rather than a DEM? – tbd
- Does the input Rho8 pointer use the ESRI style scheme? – tbd
