Knickzone Extraction Tool. Part 1 (Calculation of relative steepness)

Included as the first part of KET, this tool uses an uncompressed DEM in TIFF format to calculate relative steepness of the supplied topography at multiple scales. The tool needs input for the scale. Input of “From value”and “To value”, correspond to the first, the last scale of computation. “By value”determines the incremental scale for multiple scales in between the first and last scales. For details, please check the references.

Parameter	Explanation	Data Type
Output_workspace	Dialog Reference The folder where the files during the processing and output 'FinalRaster' will be placed. There is no python reference for this parameter.	Workspace
DEM__Must_be_a_TIF_	Dialog Reference A DEM representative of the topography. The suppied DEM must be an uncompressed TIFF file. There is no python reference for this parameter.	Raster Dataset
From_Value	Dialog Reference The starting d value. There is no python reference for this parameter.	Double
To_Value	Dialog Reference The final d value. There is no python reference for this parameter.	Double
By_Value	Dialog Reference The value by which the d is increased from 'From distance' to 'To distance'. (Step value) There is no python reference for this parameter.	Double
