Bounding Box of a Window
Find the smallest rectangle containing a given window(s)
- Keywords
- spatial
Usage
bounding.box(...)
Arguments
- ...
- One or more windows (objects of class
"owin"
).
Details
If the argument is a single window object w
,
this function finds the smallest rectangle (with sides parallel to
the coordinate axes) containing w
.
If the argument is a list of windows, then this function finds the smallest rectangle that contains all of the windows.
Note that the bounding box of a window w
is usually smaller than
the window frame (determined by w$xrange
and
w$yrange
and extracted by as.rectangle
).
Value
- A window (object of class
"owin"
) of type"rectangle"
representing a rectangle.

Examples
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 <- bounding.box(w)
# returns rectangle [1,3] x [2,7]
w2 <- unit.square()
r <- bounding.box(w, w2)
# returns rectangle [0,3] x [0,7]
