In rcrisp: Automate the Delineation of Urban River Spaces

rcrisp

rcrisp provides tools to automate the morphological delineation of riverside urban areas following the CRiSp (City River Spaces) method.

Installation

You can install the released version of rcrisp from CRAN with:

install.packages("rcrisp")

You can install the development version of rcrisp from GitHub with:

# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("CityRiverSpaces/rcrisp")

Example

This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common problem:

library(rcrisp)

# Set location parameters
city_name <- "Bucharest"
river_name <- "Dâmbovița"
epsg_code <- 32635

# Get base layer for plotting
bb <- get_osm_bb(city_name)
streets <- get_osm_streets(bb, epsg_code)$geometry
railways <- get_osm_railways(bb, epsg_code)$geometry

# Delineate river corridor
bd <- delineate(city_name, river_name, segments = TRUE)
corridor <- bd$corridor
segments <- bd$segments

# Plot results
plot(corridor)
plot(railways, col = "darkgrey", add = TRUE, lwd = 0.5)
plot(streets, add = TRUE)
plot(segments, border = "orange", add = TRUE, lwd = 3)
plot(corridor, border = "red", add = TRUE, lwd = 3)
