In mbg: Model-Based Geostatistics

Generate RMSE from an estimated raster surface and point data

Description

Generate RMSE from an estimated raster surface and point data

Usage

rmse_raster_to_point(estimates, validation_data, outcome_field, na.rm = FALSE)

Arguments

estimates	(terra::SpatRaster) Raster surface containing point estimates. This could also be the mean surface of a Bayesian geostatistical model
validation_data	(data.frame) Table containing at least the following fields: x (numeric) location x position, in the same projection as estimates y (numeric) location y position, in the same projection as estimates (Outcome field) See below
outcome_field	(character(1)) Column in validation_data containing the values that should be compared against the estimates raster surface.
na.rm	(logical(1), default FALSE) Should NA values be dropped from the RMSE calculation?

Details

For examples, see vignette('model-comparison', package = 'mbg')

Value

A single number giving RMSE between the point data and estimates raster.
