Aggregation will result in a Raster* object with fact*fact fewer cells; if necessary this number is adjusted according to the value of expand.
For example, fact=2 will result in a new Raster* object with 2*2=4 times fewer cells. If two numbers are supplied, e.g., fact=c(2,3), the first will be used for aggregating in the horizontal direction, 
and the second for aggregating in the vertical direction, and the new RasterLayer will have 2*3=6 times fewer cells.  
 
Aggregation starts at the upper-left end of a raster. If a division of the number of columns or rows with factor does not 
return an integer, the extent of the resulting RasterLayer will either be somewhat smaller or somewhat larger then the original RasterLayer.
For example, if an input RasterLayer has 100 columns, and fact=12, the output RasterLayer will have either 8 columns (expand=FALSE) 
(using 8 x 12 = 96 of the original columns) or 9 columns (expand=TRUE). In both cases, the maximum x coordinate of the output RasterLayer would, of course, also be adjusted.
  
The function fun should take multiple numbers, and return a single number. For example mean, modal, min or max. 
It should also accept a na.rm argument (or ignore it as one of the 'dots' arguments).disaggregate, resampler <- raster()
