SpatialGrid

define spatial grid


Description

defines spatial grid by offset, cell size and dimensions

Usage

GridTopology(cellcentre.offset, cellsize, cells.dim)
SpatialPixels(points, tolerance = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps),
		proj4string = CRS(as.character(NA)), round = NULL, grid = NULL)
SpatialGrid(grid, proj4string = CRS(as.character(NA)))
coordinatevalues(obj)
points2grid(points, tolerance = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps), round=NULL)
getGridIndex(cc, grid, all.inside = TRUE)
getGridTopology(obj)
areaSpatialGrid(obj)

Arguments

cellcentre.offset

numeric; vector with the smallest centroid coordinates for each dimension; coordinates refer to the cell centre

cellsize

numeric; vector with the cell size in each dimension

cells.dim

integer; vector with number of cells in each dimension

points

coordinates, object of class SpatialPoints-class

grid

grid topology; object of class GridTopology-class; for calls to SpatialPixels, a value of NULL implies that this will be derived from the point coordinates

tolerance

precision, used to which extent points are exactly on a grid

round

default NULL, otherwise a value passed to as the digits argument to round for setting cell size

proj4string

object of class CRS-class

obj

object of class or deriving from SpatialGrid-class

cc

numeric matrix with coordinates

all.inside

logical; if TRUE and cc points fall outside the grid area, an error message is generated; if FALSE, NA values are generated for such points

Value

GridTopology returns a value of class GridTopology-class; SpatialGrid returns an object of class SpatialGrid-class

coordinatevalues returns a list with the unique x-coordinates, the unique y-coordinate, etc. instead of the coordinates of all grid cells

SpatialGrid returns an object of class SpatialGrid-class.

points2grid returns the GridTopology-class from a set of points.

getGridIndex finds the index of a set of point coordinates in a given grid topology, and depending on all.inside setting, generates NA or an error message if points are outside the grid domain.

getGridTopology returns the slot of class GridTopology-class from obj.

areaSpatialGrid returns the spatial area of (the non-missing valued cells of) the grid. For objects of class SpatialGridDataFrame-class the area refers to cells where any (one or more) of the attribute columns are non-missing valued.

Note

SpatialGrid stores grid topology and may or may not store the coordinates of the actual points, which may form a subset of the full grid. To find out or change this, see fullgrid.

points2grid tries to figure out the grid topology from points. It succeeds only if points on a grid line have constant y column, and points on a grid column have constant x coordinate, etc. In other cases, use signif on the raw coordinate matrices to make sure this is the case.
