Tool [deprecated] Lake Flood (interactive)
Note: this tool is deprecated and will be removed in one of the next SAGA versions. It has been replaced by the more robust and powerful 'Terrain Flooding' tool.
This tool works interactively and can be used to flood a digital elevation model for a given water depth or water level. Execute the tool and use the action tool on a cell to flood the digital elevation model from this location. Execute the tool again to terminate tool operation.
