)The considered area as SpatialPolygon, SimpleFeature Polygon or coordinates as matrix/data.frame
Should the polygon be divided into rectangular or hexagonal grid cells? The default is "Rectangular" grid cells and hexagonal grid cells are computed when assigning "h" or "hexagon" to this input variable.
A numeric value that gives the rotor radius in meter
A numeric value indicating the required amount of turbines
A numeric value that is used for grid spacing. Default is 5
The height at which the incoming wind speeds were measured. Default is the RotorHeight.
The desired height of the turbine.
A surface roughness length of the considered area in m. If the terrain effect model is activated, a surface roughness will be calculated for every grid cell with the elevation and land cover information. Default is 0.3
A numeric value used for grid calculation. Determines the percentage a grid has to overlay. Default is 1
A numeric value indicating the desired amount of iterations of the algorithm. Default is 20
A numeric mutation rate with a default value of 0.008
A data.frame containing the incoming wind speeds, wind directions and probabilities
Logical value, which indicates if the terrain effect model should be enabled or not. Default is FALSE
Boolean value, which indicates whether elitism should be activated or not. Default is TRUE
If elitism is TRUE, this input determines the amount
of individuals in the elite group. Default is 7
Determines which selection method is used, "FIX" selects a constant percentage and "VAR" selects a variable percentage, depending on the development of the fitness values. Default is "FIX"
Determines which crossover method is used, "EQU" divides the genetic code at equal intervals and "RAN" divides the genetic code at random locations. Default is "EQU"
If activated (trimForce == TRUE), the algorithm will
take a probabilistic approach to trim the windfarms to the desired amount
of turbines. If deactivated (trimForce == FALSE) the adjustment will
be random. Default is FALSE
A desired Projection can be used instead of the default Lambert Azimuthal Equal Area Projection (EPSG:3035).
The path to the Corine Land Cover raster (.tif). Only required when the terrain effect model is activated. If nothing is assign, it will try to download a version from the EEA-website.
The source to the adapted Corine Land Cover legend
as .csv file. Only required when terrain effect model is activated. As
default a .csv file within this package (~/extdata) is taken that
was already adapted manually. To use your own .csv legend this variable has
to be assigned.
A logical value that specifies whether to take Weibull parameters into account. If `weibull == TRUE`, the wind speed values from the `vdirspe` data frame are ignored. The algorithm will calculate the mean wind speed for every wind turbine according to the Weibull parameters. Default is FALSE
A list of Weibull parameter rasters, where the first list item must be the shape parameter raster `k` and the second item must be the scale parameter raster `a` of the Weibull distribution. If no list is given, then rasters included in the package are used instead, which currently only cover Austria. This variable is only used if `weibull == TRUE`.
Boolean value, indicating whether parallel processing should be used. The parallel and doParallel packages are used for parallel processing. Default is FALSE
If Parallel is TRUE, this variable defines the
number of clusters to be used
If TRUE it will print information for every generation. Default is FALSE
If TRUE it will plot the best windfarm of every generation. Default is FALSE
