Window Frame
Extract the window frame of a window or other spatial dataset
Usage
as.rectangle(w, ...)
Arguments
- w
- A window, or a dataset that has a window.
Either a window (object of class
"owin"
), a pixel image (object of class"im"
) or other data determining such a window. - ...
- Optional. Auxiliary data to help determine the window. If
w
does not belong to a recognised class, the argumentsw
and...
are passed toas.owin
to determ
Details
This function is the quickest way to determine a bounding rectangle for a spatial dataset.
If w
is a window, the function
just extracts the outer bounding rectangle
of w
as given by its elements xrange,yrange
.
The function can also be applied to any spatial dataset that has a window:
for example, a point pattern (object of class "ppp"
) or
a line segment pattern (object of class "psp"
).
The bounding rectangle of the window of the dataset is extracted.
Use the function boundingbox
to compute the smallest
bounding rectangle of a dataset.
Value
- A window (object of class
"owin"
) of type"rectangle"
representing a rectangle.

w <- owin(c(0,10),c(0,10), poly=list(x=c(1,2,3,2,1), y=c(2,3,4,6,7)))
r <- as.rectangle(w)
# returns a 10 x 10 rectangle
data(lansing)
