Arguments

f

a SoilProfileCollection object

depth.classes

a named vector of classes and depth breaks

data(sp1)
depths(sp1) <- id ~ top + bottom

# generate depth-class matrix
sdc <- getSoilDepthClass(sp1, name='name', top='top', bottom='bottom')

# inspect
head(sdc)

# join back into sp1 as site-level data
site(sp1) <- sdc
