obj.border: Borders of raster objects

In scapesClassification: User-Defined Classification of Raster Surfaces

Borders of raster objects

Description

Identify the borders of raster objects.

Usage

obj.border(group, ngbList, silent = FALSE)

Arguments

group	named list, each element represents a raster object composed of several raster cells. If there are NA values on the raster surface, raster cells must be identified by attribute table row indices (each corresponding to a raster cell) (see attTbl).
ngbList	list, the list of neighborhoods returned by the function ngbList. The list of neighborhoods has to be computed setting the argument rNumb=TRUE.
silent	logic, progress bar is not printed on the console.

Value

The function returns a named list of object borders. List names identify the objects; list element values identify the raster cells comprising the borders.

Note

• Note that group has to be a named list whose names correspond to raster object IDs.

• If there are NA values on the raster surface, raster cells must be identified by attribute table row indices (each corresponding to a raster cell). Row indices can be converted into raster cells using the Cell column of the attribute table (e.g. attTbl$Cell[indices]) (see attTbl).
