area.sphwin: Calculate the area on the surface of a sphere
In baddstats/spherstat: Spatial Point Pattern Analysis, Geometry and Trigonometry for the Sphere
area.sphwin R Documentation
Calculate the area on the surface of a sphere
Description
Calculates the area of a sphere or a subset of the sphere (cap, band, wedge or polygon)
Usage
## S3 method for class 'sphwin'
area(w)
Arguments
w
The window for which the area is calculated.
An object of type "sphwin".
Value
The area of the sphere is returned as an object of type numeric.
Note
This function is the analogue for point processes on the sphere of the
function area.owin in spatstat, which is
the corresponding function for point processes in R^2.
