distanceLimitedPDSIZ-methods: Methods for "'distanceLimitedPDSIZ'" Object Construction in...

In sampSurf: Sampling Surface Simulation for Areal Sampling Methods

Description

This is the one method for generic function distanceLimitedPDSIZ in Package ‘sampSurf’ that allows for creation of objects of class "distanceLimitedPDSIZ."

Methods

signature(downLog = "downLog", pds = "perpendicularDistance", dls = "dlsNumeric")

usage...

distanceLimitedPDSIZ(downLog,
                     pds,
                     dls,
                     description = 'inclusion zone for down log distance limited PDS',
                     spID = paste('dlpds',.StemEnv$randomID(),sep=':'),
                     spUnits = CRS(projargs=as.character(NA)),
                     pdsType = .StemEnv$pdsTypes,
                     ... )

• downLog: An object of class "downLog" for which the inclusion zone is to be determined.

• pds: An object of class "perpendicularDistance" that supplies the information on the perpendicular distance method for constructing the inclusion zone.

• dls: An object of class "distanceLimited" that supplies the information on the distance limited method for constructing the inclusion zone. Alternatively a "numeric" distance limit that will be converted to a "distanceLimited" object.

• description: A character vector description of the object.

• spID: A unique identifier that will be used in displaying the spatial polygon for the inclusion zone component of the object.

• spUnits: A valid CRS object specifying the Coordinate Reference System. This defaults to NA, which means you want to use your own user-defined system, say for a sample plot located in the field.

• pdsType: A character string that specifies the type of perpendicular distance sampling used with regard to the selection (i.e., probability proportional to...) of the log. It can be one of "volume", "surfaceArea" or "coverageArea". (See also .StemEnv$pdsTypes for legal types.)

• dots: Arguments to be passed on.
