spatial_data_type(x, index = 1, ...)

## S3 method for class 'SpatRaster'
spatial_data_type(x, index = 1, max_sample = 10000, ...)

## S3 method for class 'data.frame'
spatial_data_type(x, index = 1, ...)

Arguments

x	sf::st_sf() or combined terra::rast() or data.frame dataset object.
index	integer or character value indicating the field or layer for which to calculate statistics. Defaults to 1, such that the first field/layer is used to calculate statistics.
