calc_setcolumns: Set column names

In amadeus: Accessing and Analyzing Large-Scale Environmental Data

Set column names

Description

Apply standard column names to calculated covariates consistent with the requirements of the beethoven package. Column names follow fixed format of 3 character data genre, 2 - 15 character variable code, 1 digit temporal lag, and 5 digit buffer radius (in meters). Variable code character range is required to retain interpretable column names across datasets.

Usage

calc_setcolumns(from, lag, dataset, locs_id)

Arguments

from	data.frame(1) or SpatVector(1). Calculated covariates as returned from calc_covariates() or a source specific covariate function.
lag	integer(1). Temporal lag.
dataset	character(1). Covariate parent dataset.
locs_id	character(1). Column containing identifier for each unique coordinate location.

Value

a data.frame or SpatVector object (depending on from)

Note

beethoven utilizes point, 1km, and 10km radius buffer distance for covariate calculation, and therefore the buffer radius column is padded to 5 digits. If provided a buffer radius greater than 5 digits, calc_setcolumns() will expand to the number of digits. (ie. buffer radius of 100km = CCC_CCCCC_I_100000).
