map_bioregions: Create a map of bioregions

In bioregion: Comparison of Bioregionalisation Methods

Create a map of bioregions

Description

This plot function can be used to visualize bioregions based on a bioregion.clusters object combined with a geometry (sf objects).

Usage

map_bioregions(clusters, geometry, write_clusters = FALSE, plot = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

clusters	An object of class bioregion.clusters or a data.frame. If a data.frame is used, the first column should represent the sites' ID, and the subsequent column(s) should represent the clusters.
geometry	A spatial object that can be handled by the sf package. The first attribute should correspond to the sites' ID (see Details).
write_clusters	A boolean indicating if the clusters should be added to the geometry.
plot	A boolean indicating if the plot should be drawn.
...	Further arguments to be passed to sf::plot().

Details

The clusters and geometry site IDs should correspond. They should have the same type (i.e., character if clusters is a bioregion.clusters object) and the sites of clusters should be included in the sites of geometry.

Value

One or several maps of bioregions if plot = TRUE and the geometry with additional clusters' attributes if write_clusters = TRUE.
