NAME
r.slopeunits - Toolset for calculating metrics for slope unitsTable of contents
DESCRIPTION
r.slopeunits is a GRASS GIS addon toolset that creates, cleans and calculate metrics for slope units. Additionally, optimal input values can be determined. The r.slopeunits toolset consists of currently four modules:- r.slopeunits.create: Creates a raster layer of slope units. Optionally, a vector map can be created.
- r.slopeunits.clean: Cleans slope units layer, e.g. results of r.slopeunits.create.
- r.slopeunits.metrics: Creates metrics for slope units.
- r.slopeunits.optimize: Determines optimal input values for slope units.
