msk.morphol.1998.create: Creates a Value Function for River Morphology

Description

Creates a value function for river morphology based on the Swiss modular concept for stream assessment, level I (Regional survey) from 1998.

Usage

msk.morphol.1998.create(language     = "English",
                        dictionaries = NA,
                        col          = "black")

Value

The function returns the value function as a class utility.

Arguments

language: Language to be used to denote nodes, attributes and attribute levels. Must be a column name of the table provided by the second argument.
dictionaries: Matrix of dictionaries with the languages provided by the column names and the original words provided as the row names. If dictionary is NA, the default dictionary ecoval.dictionaries.default is loaded.
col: Color of bounding boxes in objectives hierarchy.
