hexGreenSpace: Visualize Green Space Coverage with Hexagonal Bins

In greenR: Green Index Quantification, Analysis and Visualization

Visualize Green Space Coverage with Hexagonal Bins

Description

Creates a hexagonal binning map to visualize the percentage of green space coverage within a specified area. Users can customize the hexagon size, color palette, and other map features.

Usage

hexGreenSpace(
  green_areas_data = NULL,
  tree_data = NULL,
  hex_size = 500,
  color_palette = "viridis",
  save_path = NULL
)

Arguments

green_areas_data	List containing green areas data (obtained from the get_osm_data function), default is NULL.
tree_data	List containing tree data (obtained from the get_osm_data function), default is NULL.
hex_size	Numeric, size of the hexagons in meters, default is 500.
color_palette	Character, name of the color palette to use, default is "viridis".
save_path	Character, file path to save the map as an HTML file, default is NULL (do not save).

Value

A list containing a Leaflet map displaying the percentage of green space coverage, and a ggplot2 violin plot.

Examples

  data <- get_osm_data("City of London, United Kingdom")
  green_areas_data <- data$green_areas
  tree_data <- data$trees
  hex_map <- hexGreenSpace(green_areas_data, tree_data, hex_size = 300)
  print(hex_map$map) # Display the hex bin map
  print(hex_map$violin) # Display the violin plot
