make_mesh: Make mesh for distances among points

In James-Thorson/VAST: Vector-Autoregressive Spatio-Temporal (VAST) Model

Make mesh for distances among points

Description

make_mesh builds a tagged list representing distances for isotropic or geometric anisotropic triangulated mesh

Usage

make_mesh(
  loc_x,
  loc_g,
  loc_i,
  Method,
  Extrapolation_List,
  anisotropic_mesh = NULL,
  fine_scale = FALSE,
  map_data,
  mesh_package = c("INLA", "fmesher"),
  ...
)

Arguments

loc_x	location (eastings and northings in kilometers, UTM) for each sample or knot
Method	spatial method determines ("Mesh" and "Grid" give
anisotropic_mesh	OPTIONAL, anisotropic mesh (if missing, its recalculated from loc_x)
...	Arguments passed to INLA::inla.mesh.create

Value

Tagged list containing distance metrics
