Description

Given a set of MPAs and observations determine which observations belong to which MPA

Usage

mpa_match(mpa = read_mpa("Cuba"), obs = random_points(mpa), ...)

Arguments

mpa	sf object of MPA polygons
obs	sf object of observation points
...	other arguments for st_intersects

Value

a list of match vectors by index. If obs has 1000 points then a 1000 length list of integer vectors is returned where each vector has zero or more integers indicating which mpa polygon each belongs to. For example, the first 3 points below do not intersect any polygons, while the 4th intersects with 3 polygons and the the 5th intersects with just one.

• 1 int(0)

• 2 int(0)

• 3 int(0)

• 4 int [1:3] 42 71 177

• 5 int 40
