Hi,

For the first three you can look into gdaldem (https://linux.die.net/man/1/gdaldem).

In the past I've used SAGA GIS to compute a more extensive list of terrain parameters but it uses a large amount of memory for heavy raster files. So I'm looking for a program (or scripts) that does the computation with GDAL or an associated project. So far I found some of the computations are implemented in Grass Gis.
