rasterVis (version 0.40)

Interaction: Interaction with trellis objects.

Description

chooseRegion provides a set of points (in the form of a SpatialPoints) inside a region defined by several mouse clicks. identifyRaster labels and returns points of a trellis graphic according to mouse clicks.

Usage

chooseRegion(sp = TRUE, proj = as.character(NA))
"identifyRaster"(object, layer=1, values=FALSE, pch=13, cex=0.6, col='black',...)

Arguments

sp

logical, if TRUE the result is a SpatialPoints object, otherwise it is a logical vector as returned by in.out

proj

A character string for the proj4string of SpatialPoints.

object

A Raster object.

layer

A numeric or character which should indicate the layer to be chosen.

values

logical, if TRUE the values are returned.

pch, cex, col

Graphical parameters for panel.identify and panel.link.splom.

...

Additional arguments for trellis.focus,panel.link.splom and panel.identify.

Details

When called, these functions wait for the user to identify points (in the panel being drawn) via mouse clicks. Clicks other than left-clicks close the region (for chooseRegion) and the procedure (for identifyRaster).

##Do not close the last graphical window
##Use the left button of the mouse to identify points and the right button to finish

s <- stack(r, r-500, r+500)
levelplot(s)
chosen_s <- identifyRaster(s, values=TRUE)
