Examples

library(terra)

origDTThreads <- data.table::setDTthreads(2L)
origNcpus <- options(Ncpus = 2L)

N <- 10L                       # number of agents
x1 <- stats::runif(N, -50, 50) # previous X location
y1 <- stats::runif(N, -50, 50) # previous Y location
x0 <- stats::rnorm(N, x1, 5)   # current X location
y0 <- stats::rnorm(N, y1, 5)   # current Y location

# using SpatVector
prev <- terra::vect(cbind(x = x1, y = y1))
curr <- terra::vect(cbind(x = x0, y = y0))

# using matrix
prev <- matrix(c(x1, y1), ncol = 2, dimnames = list(NULL, c("x","y")))
curr <- matrix(c(x0, y0), ncol = 2, dimnames = list(NULL, c("x","y")))
heading(prev, curr)

#using both
prev <- terra::vect(cbind(x = x1, y = y1))
curr <- matrix(c(x0, y0), ncol = 2, dimnames = list(NULL, c("x","y")))
heading(prev, curr)
