combine: raster combine

In spatialEco: Spatial Analysis and Modelling Utilities

raster combine

Description

Combines rasters into all unique combinations of inputs

Usage

combine(x)

Arguments

x	raster stack/brick or SpatialPixelsDataFrame object

Details

A single ratified raster object is returned with the summary table as the raster attribute table, this is most similar to the ESRI format resulting from their combine function.

Please note that this is not a memory safe function that utilizes out of memory in the manner that the terra package does.

Value

A ratified (factor) terra SpatRaster representing unique combinations.

Examples

library(terra)

# Create example data (with a few NA's introduced)
 r1 <- rast(nrows=100, ncol=100)
   names(r1) <- "LC1"
   r1[] <- round(runif(ncell(r1), 1,4),0)
     r1[c(8,10,50,100)] <- NA
 r2 <- rast(nrows=100, ncol=100)
   names(r2) <- "LC2"
   r2[] <- round(runif(ncell(r2), 2,6),0)
     r2[c(10,50,100)] <- NA   
 r3 <- rast(nrows=100, ncol=100)
   names(r3) <- "LC3"
   r3[] <- round(runif(ncell(r3), 2,6),0)
     r3[c(10,50,100)] <- NA   
 r <- c(r1,r2,r3)  
   names(r) <- c("LC1","LC2","LC3")

 # Combine rasters with a multilayer stack
 cr <- combine(r)
   head(cr$summary)
   plot(cr$combine)

# or, from separate layers
 cr <- combine(c(r1,r3))
