calcMidRange

Calculate the Midpoint of the X/Y Ranges of Polygons


Description

Calculate the midpoint of the X/Y ranges of polygons found in a PolySet.

Usage

calcMidRange (polys, rollup = 3)

Arguments

polys

PolySet to use.

rollup

level of detail in the results; 1 = PIDs only, 2 = outer contours only, and 3 = no roll-up.

Details

If rollup equals 1, the results contain a mean range for each unique PID only. When it equals 2, they contain entries for outer contours only. Finally, setting it to 3 prevents roll-up, and they contain a mean range for each unique (PID, SID).

Value

PolyData with columns PID, SID (may be missing), X, and Y.
