create_grid

Create a grid of square-shaped windows

Implements a computational framework for a pattern-based,
zoneless analysis, and visualization of (ethno)racial topography
(Dmowska, Stepinski, and Nowosad (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.apgeog.2020.102239>).
It is a reimagined
approach for analyzing residential segregation and racial diversity based on
the concept of 'landscape’ used in the domain of landscape ecology.

create_grid function

<dl><dt>x</dt>
<dd>A SpatRaster</dd>
<dt>size</dt>
<dd>Expressed in the numbers of cells, is a length of the side of a square-shaped block of cells. It defines the extent of a local pattern. If <code>size=NULL</code> calculations are perfomed for the whole area</dd>
<dt>shift</dt>
<dd>Defines the shift between adjacent squares of cells along with the N-S and W-E directions. It describes the density (resolution) of the output grid. The resolution of the output map will be reduced to the original resolution multiplied by the shift. If shift=size the input map will be divided into a grid of non-overlapping square windows. Each square window defines the extent of a local pattern. If shift &lt; size - results in the grid of overlapping square windows.</dd></dl>
