spatialize_lsm: spatialize_lsm

Description

Spatialize landscape metric values

Usage

spatialize_lsm(
  landscape,
  level = "patch",
  metric = NULL,
  name = NULL,
  type = NULL,
  what = NULL,
  directions = 8,
  progress = FALSE,
  to_disk = getOption("to_disk", default = FALSE),
  ...
)

Value

list

Arguments

landscape: Raster* Layer, Stack, Brick, SpatRaster (terra), stars, or a list of rasterLayers.
level: Level of metrics. Either 'patch', 'class' or 'landscape' (or vector with combination).
metric: Abbreviation of metrics (e.g. 'area').
name: Full name of metrics (e.g. 'core area')
type: Type according to FRAGSTATS grouping (e.g. 'aggregation metrics').
what: Selected level of metrics: either "patch", "class" or "landscape". It is also possible to specify functions as a vector of strings, e.g. what = c("lsm_c_ca", "lsm_l_ta").
directions: The number of directions in which patches should be connected: 4 (rook's case) or 8 (queen's case).
progress: Print progress report.
to_disk: If TRUE raster will be saved to disk.
...: Arguments passed on to calculate_lsm().

Details

The functions returns a nested list with RasterLayers. The first level contains each input layer (only one element if RasterLayer was provided). The second level contains a RasterLayer for each selected metric (see list_lsm for details) where each cell has the landscape metric value of the patch it belongs to. Only patch level metrics are allowed.

Examples

Run this code

spatialize_lsm(landscape, what = "lsm_p_area")
