SpatialModel: R6 class representing a spatial model

In poems: Pattern-Oriented Ensemble Modeling System

R6 class representing a spatial model

Description

R6 class representing a generic (abstract) spatially-explicit model. It extends GenericModel with the addition of a study region specification.

Super classes

poems::GenericClass -> poems::GenericModel -> SpatialModel

Public fields

attached

A list of dynamically attached attributes (name-value pairs).

Active bindings

model_attributes

A vector of model attribute names.

region

A Region (or inherited class) object specifying the study region.

coordinates

Data frame (or matrix) of X-Y population (WGS84) coordinates in longitude (degrees West) and latitude (degrees North) (get and set), or distance-based coordinates dynamically returned by region raster (get only).

attribute_aliases

A list of alternative alias names for model attributes (form: alias = "attribute") to be used with the set and get attributes methods.

error_messages

A vector of error messages encountered when setting model attributes.

warning_messages

A vector of warning messages encountered when setting model attributes.

Methods

Public methods

• SpatialModel$new()

---

Method new()

Initialization method sets given attributes individually and/or from a list.

Usage

SpatialModel$new(region = NULL, ...)

Arguments

region

A Region (or inherited class) object specifying the study region.

...

Parameters passed individually.

---

Method new_clone()

Creates a new (re-initialized) object of the current (inherited) object class with optionally passed parameters.

Usage

SpatialModel$new_clone(...)

Arguments

...

Parameters passed via the inherited class constructor (defined in initialize and run via new).

Returns

New object of the current (inherited) class.

---

Method clone()

The objects of this class are cloneable with this method.

Usage

SpatialModel$clone(deep = FALSE)

Arguments

deep

Whether to make a deep clone.

Examples

# U Island example region
coordinates <- data.frame(x = rep(seq(177.01, 177.05, 0.01), 5),
                          y = rep(seq(-18.01, -18.05, -0.01), each = 5))
template_raster <- Region$new(coordinates = coordinates)$region_raster # full extent
template_raster[][-c(7, 9, 12, 14, 17:19)] <- NA # make U Island
region <- Region$new(template_raster = template_raster)
# Example spatial model
model1 <- SpatialModel$new(region = region, a_layers = 3)
model1$coordinates
model1$set_attributes(a_values = array(8:28, c(7, 3)))
model1$region$raster_from_values(model1$get_attribute("a_values"))
