SELES - Initiate agents

Description

Sets the the number of agents to initiate. THIS IS NOT FULLY IMPLEMENTED.

A SELES-like function to maintain conceptual backwards compatibility with that simulation tool. This is intended to ease transitions from SELES.

You must know how to use SELES for these to be useful.

Usage

initiateAgents(map, numAgents, probInit, asSpatialPoints = TRUE, indices)

Arguments

map

RasterLayer with extent and resolution of desired return object

numAgents

numeric resulting from a call to numAgents()

probInit

a Raster resulting from a probInit() call

asSpatialPoints

logical or "sf". Should returned object be RasterLayer or SpatVector default (or legacy TRUE SpatialPointsDataFrame)

indices

numeric. Indices of where agents should start

Value

A SpatialPointsDataFrame, with each row representing an individual agent

Examples

if (require("sf", quietly = TRUE)) {
  library(data.table)
  library(terra)

  origDTThreads <- data.table::setDTthreads(2L)
  origNcpus <- options(Ncpus = 2L)

  map <- rast(system.file("extdata", "map.tif", package = "SpaDES.tools"))
  names(map) <- "layer"
  pr <- probInit(map, p = (map[] / terra::minmax(map)[2])^2)
  agents <- initiateAgents(map, 100, pr, asSpatialPoints = "sf")
  if (interactive()) {
    terra::plot(map)
    terra::plot(agents, add = TRUE)
  }
  # Test that they are indeed selecting according to probabilities in pr
  dt1 <- data.table(table(round(extract(map, agents), 0)[, "layer"]))
  setnames(dt1, old = "N", new = "count")
  dt2 <- data.table(table(round(map[], 0)))
  setnames(dt2, old = "N", new = "available")
  dt <- dt1[dt2, on = "V1"]  # join the counts and available data.tables
  setnames(dt, old = "V1", new = "mapValue")
  dt[, selection := count / available]
  dt[is.na(selection), selection := 0]
  if (interactive()) {
    with(dt, plot(mapValue, selection))
  }
  #'
  # Note, can also produce a Raster representing agents,
  # then the number of points produced can't be more than
  # the number of pixels:
  agentsRas <- initiateAgents(map, 30, pr, asSpatialPoints = FALSE)
  if (interactive()) {
    terra::plot(agentsRas)
  }
  #'
  # clean up
  data.table::setDTthreads(origDTThreads)
  options(Ncpus = origNcpus)
}
