Description Usage Arguments Value Examples
Useful for simplifying area of interest (AOI) polygons for use with online data portals (like USGS EarthExplorer) that limit the number of vertices allowed in uploaded AOI shapefiles.
1 2 | simplify_polygon(poly_obj, max_vertices, maxit = 100, multiplier = 1.05,
initial_tolerance = "dynamic")
|
poly_obj |
a polygon as an sp object |
max_vertices |
the maximum number of vertices to allow in the simplified polygon |
maxit |
the maximum number of iterations to use to simplify the polygon |
multiplier |
a number used to increase the tolerance for each subsequent iteration, if the number of vertices in the simplified polygon is not less than /codemax_vertices |
initial_tolerance |
initial value for tolerance used to remove vertices
from polygon. If set to the default option, "dynamic", the code will
automatically set the |
polygon with less than max_vertices
vertices
