fillHoles: Fill holes in a GVector

In adamlilith/fasterRaster: Faster Raster and Spatial Vector Processing Using 'GRASS GIS'

Fill holes in a GVector

Description

fillHoles() removes holes in a GVector.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'GVector'
fillHoles(x, fail = TRUE)

Arguments

x	A GVector.
fail	Logical: If TRUE (default), and GRASS 8.3 or higher is not installed, cause an error. If FALSE, a warning will be displayed and a NULL value will be returned. This function requires GRASS 8.3 or higher to be installed.

Value

A GVector.

# Setup

# Example data:
madCoast4 <- fastData("madCoast4")
madRivers <- fastData("madRivers")

# Convert sf vectors to GVectors:
coast <- fast(madCoast4)
rivers <- fast(madRivers)
dypsis <- fast(madDypsis)

# Geographic properties:
ext(rivers) # extent
crs(rivers) # coordinate reference system

# Column names and data types:
names(coast)
datatype(coast)

# Points, lines, or polygons?
geomtype(dypsis)
geomtype(rivers)
geomtype(coast)

is.points(dypsis)
is.points(coast)

# Number of dimensions:
topology(rivers)
is.2d(rivers) # 2-dimensional?
is.3d(rivers) # 3-dimensional?

# Just the data table:
as.data.frame(rivers)
as.data.table(rivers)

# Top/bottom of the data table:
head(rivers)
tail(rivers)

# Vector or table with just selected columns:
names(rivers)

# Select geometries/rows of the vector:
nrow(rivers)
selected <- rivers[2:6]

# Plot:
plot(coast)
plot(rivers, col = "blue", add = TRUE)
plot(selected, col = "red", lwd = 2, add = TRUE)

# Vector math:
hull <- convHull(dypsis)

# Vector area and length:

# Fill holes
# First, we will make some holes by creating buffers around points, then
# removing them from a polygons GVector.
buffs <- buffer(dypsis, 500)
