Examples

# Acquire environmental variables
files <- list.files(path = file.path(system.file(package = "dismo"), "ex"),
                    pattern = "grd",
                    full.names = TRUE)

predictors <- terra::rast(files)

# Prepare presence and background locations
p_coords <- virtualSp$presence
bg_coords <- virtualSp$background

# Create SWD object
data <- prepareSWD(species = "Virtual species",
                   p = p_coords,
                   a = bg_coords,
                   env = predictors,
                   categorical = "biome")

# Train a model
model <- train(method = "Maxnet",
               data = data,
               fc = "l")

# Compute variable importance
vi <- varImp(model,
             permut = 1)

# Plot variable importance
plotVarImp(vi)

# Plot variable importance with custom color
plotVarImp(vi,
           color = "red")
