Simple Comparison of Two Least-Cost Path Approaches. Beaudette, D. In Open Source Software Tools for Soil Scientists. Paper abstract bibtex Premise: Simple comparison between the least-cost path as computed by r.walk vs. r.cost. Default parameters, unity travel friction, and λ = 1 were used with r.walk. Slope percent was used as the accumulated cost for r.cost. Test region similar to that used in a previous navigation example. Results: r.walk Shorter total path (6.03 km) Tendency to stay mid-slope, and cross large drainage at the gentlest possible position r.cost Longer total path (7.12 km) Tendency to follow drainages upstream – not always possible in steep terrain
