This vignette uses rasterdiv to build global series of indices of diversity based on Information Theory. The input dataset is the Copernicus Long-term (1999-2017) average Normalised Difference Vegetation Index for the 21st of June (copNDVI).

copNDVI <- load_copNDVI()

Overview

A SpatRaster called copNDVI is loaded together with the package rasterdiv. copNDVI is a 8-bit raster, meaning that pixel values range from 0 to 255. You could stretch it to match a more familiar (-1,1) values range using terra::stretch(copNDVI,minv=-1,maxv=1). The original dataset was resampled to 1/20th its spatial resolution and pixels with values 253, 254 and 255 (water) were set as NA's.

#Resample using terra::aggregate and a linear factor of 10
copNDVI <- terra::aggregate(copNDVI, fact=20)

Compute all indexes in rasterdiv on copNDVI

rasterdiv allows the computation of 8 diversity indexes based on information theory. In the following section, all these indexes will be computed for copNDVI using a moving window of 81 pixels (9 px side). Alpha values for the Hill, Rényi and parametric Rao indexes will be set from 0 to 2 every 0.5. In addition, we will set na.tolerance=0.2, meaning that all moving windows with more than 10% of pixels equal NA will be set to NA.

#Shannon's Diversity
sha <- Shannon(copNDVI,window=9,na.tolerance=0.2,np=1)

#Pielou's Evenness
pie <- Pielou(copNDVI,window=9,na.tolerance=0.2,np=1)

#Berger-Parker's Index
ber <- BergerParker(copNDVI,window=9, na.tolerance=0.2, np=1)

#Parametric Rao's quadratic entropy with alpha ranging from 1 to 3
prao <- paRao(copNDVI, window=9, alpha=c(1:3), na.tolerance=0.8, dist_m="euclidean", np=1)

#Cumulative residual entropy 
cre <- CRE(copNDVI, window=9, na.tolerance=1, np=1, simplify=0)

#Hill's numbers
hil <- Hill(copNDVI, window=9, alpha=seq(0,1,0.5), na.tolerance=0.2, np=1)

#Rényi's Index
ren <- Renyi(copNDVI, window=9, alpha=seq(0,1,0.5), na.tolerance=0.2, np=1)

Visualise output SpatRasters (the shape of continents is deformed by the NAs in the 9x9 moving windows)
