Diameter of a Window Frame
Computes the diameter of a window
- Keywords
- spatial
Usage
diameter(w)
Arguments
- w
- A window, whose diameter will be computed.
Details
It is intended that this function compute the diameter of a window of arbitrary shape, i.e. the maximum distance between any two points in the window. The current implementation just computes the length of the diagonal of the rectangular frame surrounding the window.
The argument w
should be a window (an object of class
"owin"
, see owin.object
for details)
or can be given in any format acceptable to as.owin()
.
Value
- The numerical value of the diameter of the window.

Examples
library(spatstat)
w <- owin(c(0,1),c(0,1))
diameter(w)
# returns sqrt(2)
