CCPolygon: Canopy-cover polygon

In forestChange: Computing Essential Biodiversity Variables from Global Forest Change Data

Description

This function computes regions of interest across GFC areas for tree-cover data (GFC30TC).

Usage

CCPolygon(pol = NULL, path, int.patt = "[[:digit:]].tif", mc.cores = detectCores(), 
    ...)

Arguments

pol	SpatialPolygonsDataFrame, character or NULL. Polygon geometry, GADM, stack such as tha produced by FCPolygon, or NULL. If NULL then a list of GADM units is printed.
path	character. File path(s) to GFC30TC layers (.tif), or to zip archives containing GFC30TC.
int.patt	character. If files in path are compressed then common pattern in the extracted files. Default '[[:digit:]].tif'.
mc.cores	logical. Use parallel execution. Default TRUE. Ignored in Windows machines.
...	Additional arguments in FCMask.

Value

RasterStack, set of GADM units, or NULL.
