Description Usage Arguments Details
Get an nside such that all points belong
to different pixels, when the minimum
distance between the points is dist
.
1 | minDist2nside(dist, factor = 3/4)
|
dist |
The minimum distance between any two points in a data.frame of points that lie on S^2 |
factor |
Allows changing the shrinkage factor for the circlular pixels (radius = dist*factor). |
We treat pixels as circles. From the total surface
area of a unit sphere and the radius of a circle with
area 4*pi/(12*nside^2), we derive a sufficiently
large nside to achieve the desired separation. We
aim for (circular) pixels with (default)
radius dist
*3/4.
