plot_projection: Visualization of a projected voxel cloud.

In VoxR: Trees Geometry and Morphology from Unstructured TLS Data

Description

Visualization of a projected voxel cloud.

Usage

plot_projection(data, var, th, palette)

Arguments

data	a data.frame or data.table containing the output of the project_voxels function: x, y, number of voxels, number of points and ratio of a projected voxel cloud.
var	character. The variable to plot: "nvox" for the number of voxels per pixel, "npts" for the number of points or "ratio" for the ratio npts/nvox. Default is "nvox".
th	numeric between 0 and 1. A quantile threshold that defines the maximum value of var to be plotted. Values > th are replaced by the value of th. Desabled by default.
palette	a color palette to use for plotting.

Examples

#- import tls data
tls=data.table::fread(system.file("extdata", "Tree_t0.asc", package="VoxR"))

#- voxelisation
voxels = VoxR::vox(tls,0.05)

#- project into the xy plan
project = VoxR::project_voxels(voxels,"xy")

#- plot the number of voxels
VoxR::plot_projection(project,var = "nvox")

#- plot the number of points
VoxR::plot_projection(project,var = "npts")

#- plot the ratio npts/nvox
VoxR::plot_projection(project,var = "ratio")

#- plot the number of voxels with different color palette
VoxR::plot_projection(project,palette = terrain.colors)

#- plot the number of voxels with a 95% percentile threshold
VoxR::plot_projection(project,th = 0.95)
