get_boundary_polygons: Convert Boundaries to Polygons

In treePlotArea: Correction Factors for Tree Plot Areas Intersected by Stand Boundaries

Convert Boundaries to Polygons

Description

Used by get_correction_factors to convert a boundary table to polygons. You may want to see the polygons, that is why we exported this function.

Usage

get_boundary_polygons(boundaries, stop_on_error = TRUE, clean_data = FALSE)

Arguments

boundaries	A data.frame containing boundaries. It has to have columns named by the contents of either get_defaults()[["boundaries"]] or getOption("treePlotArea")[["boundaries"]]. Could be get(data("boundaries", package = "treePlotArea")) or the output of get_boundary_polygons.
stop_on_error	Throw an error if invalid boundaries are encountered? (There was tract 6878, corner 1, boundary 1 in the federal database for the 2012 survey, runs through the plot. There is no stand defined that way!).
clean_data	Omit invalid boundaries in any further calculations?

Value

A list with all boundary polygons for each corner for each tract.

boundary_polygons <- get_boundary_polygons(boundaries)
