time: time of SpatRaster layers

In terra: Spatial Data Analysis

time of SpatRaster layers

Description

Get or set the time of the layers of a SpatRaster. Time can be stored as POSIXlt (date and time, with a resolution of seconds, and a time zone), Date, "months", "years", or "yearmonths".

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'SpatRaster'
time(x, format="")

## S4 replacement method for signature 'SpatRaster'
time(x, tstep="")<-value

## S4 method for signature 'SpatRaster'
timeInfo(x)

Arguments

x	SpatRaster or SpatRasterDataset
format	One of "", "seconds" (POSIXlt), "days" (Date), "yearmonths" (decimal years), "years", "months". If "", the returned format is (based on) the format that was used to set the time
value	Date, POSIXt, yearmon (defined in package zoo), or numeric
tstep	One of "years", "months", "yearmonths". Used when value is numeric. Ignored when value is of type Date, POSIXt, or yearmon

Value

time: POSIXlt, Date, or numeric timeInfo: data.frame

# Date"
d <- as.Date("2001-05-04") + 0:2

time(s)

# POSIX (date/time with a resolution of seconds)
time(s) <- as.POSIXlt(d)
time(s)

# with time zone
time(s) <- as.POSIXlt(Sys.time(), "America/New_York") + 0:2
time(s)
timeInfo(s)

# years
time(s, tstep="years") <- 2000 + 0:2
s

time(s, tstep="months") <- 1:3
