WbW and WbW-Pro

There are two versions, or tiers, of Whitebox Workflows, including the standard WbW tier and the professional tier, Whitebox Worfklows for Python Professional (WbW-Pro). The standard tier of WbW is free and includes over 400 tool functions. WbW-Pro, which is installed along with WbW, adds access to approximately 80 additional functions for advanced geoprocessing. WbW-Pro requires users to purchase a license from www.whiteboxgeo.com.

To determine whether a particular tool function is a WbW or WbW-Pro use the whitebox_workflows.is_wbw_pro_function function.

wbw_pro_function.py

from whitebox_workflows import is_wbw_pro_function

print(f"filter_lidar is WbW-Pro function: {is_wbw_pro_function('filter_lidar')}")

You can also see which functions require a WbW-Pro license in the API associated with the WbEnvironment class and in the separate WbW-Pro help documentation.
