I saw r.topidx calculate topographic index (wetness index),<br>
ln(a/tan(beta)), map from elevation map where<br>
a: the area of the hillslope per unit contour length that drains through<br>
any point,<br>
tan(beta): the local surface topographic slope (delta vertical) / (delta<br>
horizontal).<br>
<br>
I should only have the numerator of topographic index. How can i get it?<br>
Thanks<br>
