Examples

Run this code
require(terra)
dem <- rast(system.file("extdata/DEMs/YASI_dem.tif", package="TCHazaRds"))
land <- dem; land[land > 0] = 0
inland_proximity = distance(land,target = 0)
GEO_land = land_geometry(dem,inland_proximity)

TCi = vect(cbind(c(154,154),c(-26.1,-26)),"lines",crs="epsg:4283") #track line segment
TCi$PRES = 950
TCi$RMAX = 40
TCi$VMAX = 60
TCi$B = 1.4
TCi$ISO_TIME = "2022-10-04 20:00:00"
TCi$LON = geom(TCi)[1,3]
TCi$LAT = geom(TCi)[1,4]
TCi$STORM_SPD = perim(TCi)/(3*3600) #m/s
TCi$thetaFm = 90-returnBearing(TCi)
#OR
TC <- vect(system.file("extdata/YASI/YASI.shp", package="TCHazaRds"))
TC$PRES <- TC$BOM_PRES
TCi = TC[47]
plot(dem);lines(TCi,lwd = 4,col=2)

paramsTable = read.csv(system.file("extdata/tuningParams/defult_params.csv",package = "TCHazaRds"))
#calculate the wind hazard
HAZ = TCHazaRdsWindField(GEO_land,TCi,paramsTable)
plot(HAZ)

#require(rasterVis) #pretty spatial vector plot
#ats = seq(0, 80, length=9)
#UV = as(c(HAZ["Uw"],HAZ["Vw"]),"Raster") #need to convert back to raster
