horizontalPointCMCIZ: Generate Objects of Class "'>horizontalPointCMCIZ"

Description

This generic is the base constructor for creating objects of class “horizontalPointCMCIZ”. Please see the associated horizontalPointCMCIZ-methods method for more details.

Usage

horizontalPointCMCIZ(standingTree, angleGauge, ...)

Arguments

standingTree

Signature object of class "'>standingTree".

angleGauge

Signature object of class "'>angleGauge".

…

See associated method.

Value

A valid object of class “horizontalPointCMCIZ”.

Details

It is very important to note both here and in the method documentation that the call to this constructor is the appropriate place to include any extra arguments that should be passed on to the crudeMonteCarlo constructor for control of subsampling within the inclusion zone.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
#
# restrict CMC sampling between 10-20m height, with 2
# subsamples to be taken on the tree at each grid cell...
#
st = standingTree(dbh=50, solidType=4, height=25)
ag = angleGauge(baf=4)
cmchps.iz = horizontalPointCMCIZ(st, ag, segBnds=c(10,20),
            n.s=2)
summary(cmchps.iz)
plot(cmchps.iz)
# }
