character. Method used for estimating the new cell values. One of:
bilinear: bilinear interpolation (3x3 cell window). This is used by default if the first layer of x is not categorical
mean: This can be a good choice with continuous variables if the output cells overlap with multiple input cells.
near: nearest neighbor. This is used by default if the first layer of x is categorical. This method is not a good choice for continuous values.
modal: The modal value. This can be a good choice for categorical rasters, if the output cells overlap with multiple input cells.
cubic: cubic interpolation (5x5 cell window).
cubicspline: cubic B-spline interpolation. (5x5 cell window).
lanczos: Lanczos windowed sinc resampling. (7x7 cell window).
sum: the weighted sum of all non-NA contributing grid cells.
min, q1, median, q3, max: the minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, or maximum value.
rms: the root-mean-square value of all non-NA contributing grid cells.
