dg_closest_res_to_area: Find closest resolution for target cell area

Description

Finds the grid resolution that produces cells closest to the target area. This is primarily used internally by hexify_grid and hex_grid. Most users should use those functions directly.

Usage

dg_closest_res_to_area(
  dggs,
  area,
  round = "nearest",
  metric = TRUE,
  show_info = FALSE
)

Value

Resolution level (integer)

Arguments

dggs

Grid specification (aperture and topology must be set)

area

Target cell area in km^2 (if metric=TRUE)

round

Rounding method ("nearest", "up", "down")

metric

Whether area is in metric units

show_info

Print information about chosen resolution

Examples

# Create a temporary grid to get aperture settings
temp_grid <- list(aperture = 3, topology = "HEXAGON")
class(temp_grid) <- "hexify_grid"

# Find resolution for 1000 km^2 cells
res <- dg_closest_res_to_area(temp_grid, area = 1000, 
                               metric = TRUE, show_info = TRUE)
print(res)
