horizontalLineIZ-methods: Methods for "'horizontalLineIZ'" object constuction in...

Description Methods

Description

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

Methods

signature(standingTree = "standingTree", angleGauge = "angleGauge", lineLength = "numeric")

Note that an object of class "lineSegment" will be constructed from the values passed in the lineLength and orientation arguments...

usage...

horizontalLineIZ(standingTree,
                 angleGauge,
                 lineLength,
                 orientation = 0, 
                 description = 'inclusion zone for horizontal line sampling method',
                 spID = paste('hls',.StemEnv$randomID(),sep=':'),
                 spUnits = CRS(projargs=as.character(NA)),
                 ... ) 
  • standingTree: An object of class "standingTree" for which the inclusion zone is to be determined.

  • angleGauge: An object of class "angleGauge".

  • lineLength: The length of the line segment in the appropriate units (feet for “English”, meters for “metric”).

  • orientation: The line orientation clockwise from north as an azimuth in degrees.

  • 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.

  • dots: Arguments to be passed on.
