cross.tab: Class comparison between two nominal rasters

In spatialEco: Spatial Analysis and Modelling Utilities

Class comparison between two nominal rasters

Description

Creates a labeled cross tabulation between two nominal rasters

Usage

cross.tab(x, y, values = NULL, labs = NULL, pct = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x	A terra SpatRaster class object
y	A terra SpatRaster class object to compare to x
values	Expected values in both rasters
labs	Labels associated with values argument
pct	(TRUE/FALSE) return proportions rather than counts
...	Additional arguments

Details

This function returns a cross tabulation between two nominal rasters. Arguments allow for labeling the results and returning proportions rather than counts. It also accounts for asymmetrical classes between the two rasters

Value

a table with the cross tabulated counts
