Convert data frame to landscape

Description

Converts a given data frame in a list which can be used in the following functions, an object of class 'metapopulation'.

Usage

convert.graph(dframe, mapsize, dispersal)

Arguments

dframe	data frame with the original data and the following columns, in this order: ID - patch Id. X - Coordinate. Y - Coordinate. Area - Patch area, in hectares. Occupation - Species presence status (0/1).
mapsize	Landscape mosaic side length, in meters.
dispersal	Species mean dispersal ability, in meters.
