In rcaiman: CAnopy IMage ANalysis

Out-of-the-box object-based image analysis of canopy photographs

Description

Out-of-the-box version of methods first presented in \insertCiteDiaz2015;textualrcaiman.

Usage

ootb_obia(
  caim,
  z = NULL,
  a = NULL,
  m = NULL,
  sky_blue = NULL,
  w_red = 0,
  gamma = 2.2
)

Arguments

caim	SpatRaster. The return of a call to read_caim() or read_caim_raw().
z	SpatRaster built with zenith_image().
a	SpatRaster built with azimuth_image().
m	SpatRaster. Default (NULL) is the equivalent to enter !is.na(z) for hemispherical photography, or enter !is.na(caim$Red) for restricted view photography.
sky_blue	color. Is the target_color argument to be passed to membership_to_color(). Default (NULL) is the equivalent to enter sRGB(0.1, 0.4, 0.8)–the HEX color code is #1A66CC, it can be entered into a search engine (such as Mozilla Firefox) to see a color swatch.
w_red	Numeric vector of length one. Weight of the red channel. A single layer image is calculated as a weighted average of the blue and red channels. This layer is used as lightness information. The weight of the blue is the complement of w_red.
gamma	Numeric vector of length one. This is for applying a gamma back correction to the lightness information (see Details and argument w_red).

Details

This function is a hard-coded version of a pipeline that combines these main functions mask_sunlit_canopy(), enhance_caim(), polar_qtree()/qtree(), and obia(). The code can be easily inspected by calling ootb_obia –no parenthesis. Advanced users can use that code as a template.

Pixels from the synthetic layer returned by obia() that lay between 0 and 1 are assigned to the class plant only if they comply with the following conditions:

• Their values are equal to 0 after defuzzify() with a sky grid segmentation of 10 degrees.

• Their values are equal to 0 after apply_thr() with a threshold computed with thr_isodata().

• They are not exclusively surrounded by sky pixels.

Use the default values of z and a to process restricted view photographs.

If you use this function in your research, please cite \insertCiteDiaz2015;textualrcaiman or \insertCiteDiaz2023;textualrcaiman in addition to this package (⁠citation("rcaiman"⁠).

Value

An object of class SpatRaster with values 0 and 1.
