In SpaDES.tools: Additional Tools for Developing Spatially Explicit Discrete Event Simulation (SpaDES) Models

Produce a neutral landscape using a midpoint displacement algorithm

Description

This is a wrapper for the nlm_mpd function in the NLMR package. The main addition is that it makes sure that the output raster conforms in extent with the input raster x, since nlm_mpd can output a smaller raster.

Usage

neutralLandscapeMap(
  x,
  pad = 10L,
  type = c("nlm_mpd", "nlm_gaussianfield", "nlm_distancegradient", "nlm_edgegradient",
    "nlm_fbm", "nlm_mosaicfield", "nlm_mosaicgibbs", "nlm_mosaictess", "nlm_neigh",
    "nlm_percolation", "nlm_planargradient", "nlm_random",
    "nlm_randomrectangularcluster"),
  ...
)

Arguments

x	A RasterLayer/SpatRaster to use as a template.
pad	Integer. Number of cells by which to pad x internally to ensure nlm_mpd produces a raster corresponding to the dimensions of x.
type	One of the supported NLMR functions.
...	Further arguments passed to NLMR function specified in type (except ncol, nrow and resolution, which are extracted from x).

Value

A RasterLayer/SpatRaster with same extent as x, with randomly generated values.

Examples

  if (requireNamespace("NLMR", quietly = TRUE) &&
      requireNamespace("raster", quietly = TRUE)) {
    library(terra)
    nx <- ny <- 100L
    r <- rast(nrows = ny, ncols = nx, xmin = -nx/2, xmax = nx/2, ymin = -ny/2, ymax = ny/2)
    ## or with raster package:
    # r <- raster::raster(nrows = ny, ncols = nx, xmn = -nx/2, xmx = nx/2, ymn = -ny/2, ymx = ny/2)
    map1 <- neutralLandscapeMap(r,
                                type = "nlm_mpd",
                                roughness = 0.65,
                                rand_dev = 200,
                                rescale = FALSE,
                                verbose = FALSE)
    if (interactive()) plot(map1)
  }
