Overlay a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame or sf polygons layer on a raster layer and clip the raster to each polygon. Optionally done in parallel
raster_by_poly(
  raster_layer,

  summarize = FALSE,
  parallel = FALSE
)a list of RasterLayers if summarize = FALSE otherwise a list of
vectors.
the raster layer
a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame layer or sf layer
the field on which to split the SpatialPolygonsDataFrame
Should the function summarise the raster values in each
polygon to a vector? Default FALSE
process in parallel? Default FALSE. If TRUE, it is up to
the user to call future::plan() (or set options)
to specify what parallel strategy to use.
