In atkinsjeff/forestr: Ecosystem and Canopy Structural Complexity Metrics from LiDAR

Graphs Plant Area Volume Density Profiles

Description

plot_pavd produces a PAVD plot from matrix data

Usage

plot_pavd(m, filename, plot.file.path.pavd, hist = FALSE, save_output = FALSE)

Arguments

m	matrix of light adjusted vai values.
filename	the name of the file currently being processed.
plot.file.path.pavd	path of plot file to be written, inherited from process_pcl or process_multi_pcl
hist	logical input to include histogram of VAI, if TRUE it is included, if FALSE, it is not.
save_output	if TRUE it saves the plot, if false it just runs

Details

This function is a nested function inside of process_pcl. It could be run independently using the summary_matrix.csv output files created from running procesS_pcl as well.

Value

plant area volume density plots
