Usage

buffer_square(point, length, degree = 0)

Arguments

point	Centre point of the buffer, must equal to true in: sf::st_is(point, "POINT")
length	Length of the square sides, should be in the unit of projection (numeric)
degree	The angle at which the square is centred (clockwise). Must be between 0 and 360 (numeric)

Value

An object of class sfc_POLYGON

example_point = sf::st_point(c(1,2))
example_point = sf::st_sfc(example_point)
example_point = sf::st_sf(example_point)
buffer_square(example_point, 90, 22) -> square_shaped_buffer
