mosaic SpatRasters

Description

mosaic SpatRasters to form a new SpatRaster object with a larger spatial extent. Unlike with merge, values on overlapping areas are averaged.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'SpatRaster,SpatRaster'
mosaic(x, y, ..., fun="mean", filename="", overwrite=FALSE, wopt=list())

Arguments

`x`	SpatRaster
`y`	object of same class as `x`
`...`	additional SpatRasters
`fun`	character. One of "sum", "mean", "median", "min", "max"
`filename`	character. Output filename
`overwrite`	logical. If `TRUE`, `filename` is overwritten
`wopt`	list with named options for writing files as in `writeRaster`

Details

The SpatRaster objects must have the same origin and spatial resolution. In areas where the SpatRaster objects overlap, the values of the SpatRaster that is last in the sequence of arguments will be retained.

Value

SpatRaster

Examples

x <- rast(xmin=-110, xmax=-50, ymin=40, ymax=70, ncols=60, nrows=30)
y <- rast(xmin=-80, xmax=-20, ymax=60, ymin=30)
res(y) <- res(x)
values(x) <- 1:ncell(x)
values(y) <- 1:ncell(y)
mr <- mosaic(x, y)
