In cartograflow: Filtering Matrix for Flow Mapping

Computation of a global concentration criterion of flows values or features

Description

Computation of a global selection criterion for filtering flows values or flow features.
To be use after flowgini and before flowmap.

Usage

flowanalysis(tab, fij = NULL, critflow, critlink, result)

Arguments

tab	input flow dataset from flowgini
fij	flow value between origin and destination places
critflow	desired level of information significativity. See Details.
critlink	desired level of features density. See Details.
result	resulting filtering criterion value. See Details.

Details

-critflow = desired level of flow's information significativity (e.g. 80 -critlink = desired level of flow's features density (e.g. 20 of the flow features that represents the more significant information.

-result="density" returns the desired level of features density as a -result = "significativity" returns the level of flow significativity as a
