Slope - 5 meter grid
Slope: Cell values reflect the maximum rate of change (in degrees) in elevation between neighboring cells. Slope was derived with the ArcGIS Spatial Analyst extension.

Rugosity - 5 meter grid
Rugosity: Cell values reflect the surface area / planimetric area ratio for the area contained within that cell’s boundaries. They provide indices of topographic roughness and convolutedness. (Jenness 2003)

BPI Structures - 5 meter grid
BPI Structures: Derived from two scales (30 & 200) of BPI; Slope; and depth. Three ranges of Slope defined flats, Slopes and near vertical: x < 5; 5 < x < 70.
