spatially or temporally aggregate stars object

Description

spatially or temporally aggregate stars object, returning a data cube with lower spatial or temporal resolution

Usage

## S3 method for class 'stars'
aggregate(
  x,
  by,
  FUN,
  ...,
  drop = FALSE,
  join = st_intersects,
  as_points = any(st_dimension(by) == 2, na.rm = TRUE),
  rightmost.closed = FALSE,
  left.open = FALSE,
  exact = FALSE
)

Arguments

x

object of class stars with information to be aggregated

by

object of class sf or sfc for spatial aggregation, for temporal aggregation a vector with time values (Date, POSIXct, or PCICt) that is interpreted as a sequence of left-closed, right-open time intervals or a string like "months", "5 days" or the like (see cut.POSIXt), or a function that cuts time into intervals; if by is an object of class stars, it is converted to sfc by st_as_sfc(by, as_points = FALSE) thus ignoring its time component. Note: each pixel is assigned to only a single group (in the order the groups occur) so non-overlapping spatial features and temporal windows are recommended.

FUN

aggregation function, such as mean

...

arguments passed on to FUN, such as na.rm=TRUE

drop

logical; ignored

join

function; function used to find matches of x to by

as_points

see st_as_sf: shall raster pixels be taken as points, or small square polygons?

rightmost.closed

see findInterval

left.open

logical; used for time intervals, see findInterval and cut.POSIXt

exact

logical; if TRUE, use coverage_fraction to compute exact overlap fractions of polygons with raster cells
