This functor calculates a cumulative flow map using a flow direction map, an elevation map and a flow partition map. The resulting map indicates the flow received by every cell directly and indirectly.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Flow | Map Type | This map defines the flow directions between cells. |
| Name | Type | Description | Default Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weight | Map Type | Weights ponder the cell flow, in terms of contribution. If this map is not provided, the functor assumes that weight is always 1. | None |
| Flow Partition | Map Type | This parameter defines the percentage of the flow transfered among cells. If the functor does not receive this map, it is assumed that the flow is equally divided among the cells pointed by the “Flow Directions” map. | None |
| Cell Type | Cell Type Type | Defines the output map cell type. | Signed 32 Bit Integer |
| Null Accumulation | Integer Value Type | Defines the output map null value. | -2147483648 |
| Accumulation Is Sparse | Integer Value Type | If true, the map is loaded as a sparse image. Sparse images have the advantage of storing only the cells containing non-null values, yet have diminished access time. | False |
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Flow Accumulation | Map Type | Map where each cell represents the accumulated flow. The resulting flow comprises the flows received from the neighbors directly and indirectly. |
The direction map indicates the possible flow direction from every cells. See Calc Flow Direction Map for further information about the flow direction map.
The elevation map must be the same map used to calculate the flow direction map. See Calc Flow Direction Map for further information.
The flow partition map is used to indicate how much flow goes into every possible branch (in case of a multidirectional flow source). This map must have at least 8 layers. Each layer corresponds to one of the cell neighbors as follows:
| Layer 5 | Layer 6 | Layer 7 |
| Layer 4 | Layer 0 | |
| Layer 3 | Layer 2 | Layer 1 |
Example: If the central/anchor cell points toward the left neighbor, the functor searches the partition information on the 4th layer at the same position of the cell.
If a partition map is not provided, the flow is evenly divided.
The weight map defines how much a cell contributes to the overall accumulated flow. If a weight map is not provided, the functor assumes a weight of 1 for all cells.
