aoe_geometry: Extract AoE Geometries

In areaOfEffect: Spatial Support at Scale

Extract AoE Geometries

Description

Extract the original support polygons and/or the area of effect polygons from an aoe_result object.

Usage

aoe_geometry(x, which = c("aoe", "original", "both"), support_id = NULL)

Arguments

x	An aoe_result object returned by aoe().
which	Which geometry to extract: "aoe" (default), "original", or "both".
support_id	Optional character or numeric vector specifying which support(s) to extract. If NULL (default), extracts all.

Value

An sf object with polygon geometries and columns:

support_id

Support identifier

type

"original" or "aoe"

Examples

library(sf)

support <- st_as_sf(
  data.frame(region = c("A", "B")),
  geometry = st_sfc(
    st_polygon(list(cbind(c(0, 10, 10, 0, 0), c(0, 0, 10, 10, 0)))),
    st_polygon(list(cbind(c(15, 25, 25, 15, 15), c(0, 0, 10, 10, 0))))
  ),
  crs = 32631
)

pts <- st_as_sf(
  data.frame(id = 1:4),
  geometry = st_sfc(
    st_point(c(5, 5)),
    st_point(c(12, 5)),
    st_point(c(20, 5)),
    st_point(c(27, 5))
  ),
  crs = 32631
)

result <- aoe(pts, support)

# Get AoE polygons
aoe_polys <- aoe_geometry(result, "aoe")

# Get both original and AoE for comparison
both <- aoe_geometry(result, "both")

# Filter to one support (uses row names as support_id)
region_1 <- aoe_geometry(result, "aoe", support_id = "1")
