is.int: Data type of a raster

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

Data type of a raster

Description

In fasterRaster, rasters can have three data types: "factor" (categorical rasters), "integer" (integers), "float" (floating point values, accurate to the 6th to 9th decimal places), and "double" (double-precision values, accurate to the 15th to 17th decimal places). The type of raster can be checked with:

• is.factor(): The raster will have integer values and categories matched to the integers (see levels()).

• is.int(): Are values integers? Note that is.int() will return FALSE for categorical rasters, even though cell values are technically integers.

• is.cell(): Are values integers (TRUE for integer and categorical rasters).

• is.float(): Are values floating-point precision?

• is.doub(): Are values double-floating point precision?
