kasc2spixdf: Conversion of maps from/to the package "sp"

Description

These functions convert maps of classes available in adehabitat toward classes available in the package sp and conversely. kasc2spixdf converts an object of class kasc into an object of class SpatialPixelsDataFrame. asc2spixdf converts an object of class asc into an object of class SpatialGridDataFrame. spixdf2kasc converts an object of class SpatialPixelsDataFrame or SpatialGridDataFrame into an object of class asc or kasc. area2sr converts an object of class area into an object of class SpatialRings. sr2area converts an object of class SpatialRings or SpatialRingsDataFrame into anobject of class area. attsr2area gets the data attribute of an object of class SpatialRingsDataFrame and stores is into a data frame. traj2spdf converts an object of class traj into an object of class SpatialPointsDataFrame. traj2sldf converts an object of class traj into an object of class SpatialLinesDataFrame.

Usage

kasc2spixdf(ka)
asc2spixdf(a)
spixdf2kasc(sg)
area2sr(ar)
sr2area(sr)
attsr2area(srdf)
traj2spdf(tr)
traj2sldf(tr, byid = FALSE)

Arguments

ka

an object of class kasc.

a

an object of class asc.

sg

an object of class SpatialPixelsDataFrame or SpatialGridDataFrame.

ar

an object of class area.

sr

an object of class SpatialRings or SpatialRingsDataFrame.

srdf

an object of class SpatialRingsDataFrame.

tr

an object of class traj.

byid

logical. If TRUE, one objects of class Slines correspond to one animal. if FALSE, one object of class Slines correspond to one burst.

Details

We describe here more in detail the functions sr2area and attsr2area. Objects of class area do not deal with holes in the polygons, whereas the objects of class SpatialRings do. Therefore, when holes are present in the SpatialRings object passed as argument, the function sr2area ignore them and returns only the external contour of the polygon (though a warning is returned, see example).

See Also

import.asc for information on objects of class asc, as.kasc for info on objects of class kasc, as.area for info on objects of class area, as.traj for objects of class traj.

##
## Conversion kasc -> SpatialPixelsDataFrame
##

data(puechabon)
toto <- kasc2spixdf(puechabon$kasc)
image(toto)
summary(toto)

#### and conversely
toto <- spixdf2kasc(toto)
image(toto)
hist(toto)

data(meuse.grid)
m <- SpatialPixelsDataFrame(points = meuse.grid[c("x", "y")],
                           data = meuse.grid)
i <- spixdf2kasc(m)
image(i)


### conversion asc -> SpatialPixelsDataFrame
cuicui <- asc2spixdf(getkasc(toto,1))
image(cuicui)

##
## Conversion area -> SpatialRings
##

data(elec88)
ar <- as.area(elec88$area)
plot(ar)
toto <- area2sr(ar)
plot(toto)


#########################################
##
## Conversion SpatialRings -> area
##

## First create an object of class "SpatialRingsDataFrame"
data(ncshp)
nc1 <- as.SpatialRings.Shapes(nc.shp$Shapes, as.character(nc.shp$att.data$FIPS))
plotSpatialRings(nc1)
df <- nc.shp$att.data
rownames(df) <- as.character(nc.shp$att.data$FIPS)
ncSRDF <- SpatialRingsDataFrame(nc1, df)


## and then conversion:
coincoin <- sr2area(ncSRDF)
## please note the warnings

plot(coincoin)
## gets the attributes
haha <- attsr2area(ncSRDF)
area.plot(coincoin, values = df$SID74/df$BIR74)


#########################################
##
## Conversion traj -> SpatialPointsDataFrame
##

data(puechcirc)
plot(puechcirc)

toto <- traj2spdf(puechcirc)
plot(toto)


#########################################
##
## Conversion traj -> SpatialLinesDataFrame
##

data(puechcirc)
plot(puechcirc)

toto <- traj2sldf(puechcirc)
plot(toto)
