Breach Depressions

The Breach Depressions tool is used to remove depressions in a digital elevation model (DEM) raster file. It uses a breach-first, fill-second approach to resolve continuous flowpaths through depressions.

Input Parameters

  • Input raster DEM file: – Select the raster DEM to use in the tool.
  • Optional flag indicating whether to fill single-cell pits – Checking this tells the tool raise the pit elevations on single-cell pits to that of the lowest neighbor rather than creating a deep breach. Turning this on may add to the run time of the tool.

Output Parameters

  • Output raster file: – Enter a name for the adjusted raster file.
