line_segment: Divide SpatialLines dataset into regular segments

Description

Divide SpatialLines dataset into regular segments

Usage

line_segment(l, n_segments, segment_length = NA)

Arguments

l

A SpatialLinesDataFrame

n_segments

The number of segments to divide the line into

segment_length

The approximate length of segments in the output (overides n_segments if set)

Examples

# NOT RUN {
data(routes_fast)
l = routes_fast[2,]
l_seg2 = line_segment(l = l, n_segments = 2)
plot(l_seg2, col = l_seg2$group, lwd = 50)
l_seg5 = line_segment(l = l, n_segments = 5)
plot(l_seg5, col = l_seg5$group, lwd = 30, add = TRUE)
l_seg100m = line_segment(l = l, segment_length = 100)
plot(l_seg100m, col = l_seg100m$group, lwd = 10, add = TRUE)
plot(l, col = "white", add = TRUE)
line_segment(l = l, segment_length = 100)
