Overland flow length

Command line

The Overland Flow Length operation can be directly executed by typing the following expression on the command line of the Main window:

  

OUTMAP

=

MapOverlandFlowLength(drainorder_rasmap, flowdir_rasmap)

where:

OUTMAP

is the name of the output raster map that will contain the overland distance towards the nearest drainage.

MapOverlandFlowLength

is the command to start the Overland Flow Length operation.

drainorder_rasmap

is a raster map that is the outcome of the Drainage Network Ordering operation, i.e. a raster map with an Identifier domain.

flowdir_rasmap

is a raster that is the outcome of the Flow Direction operation, i.e. a raster map with system domain FlowDirection.

When the definition symbol = is used, a dependent output map is created; when the assignment symbol := is used, the dependency link is immediately broken after the output map has been calculated.
