Description

Creates a data.frame with points having (long, lat) as center, and the given wind radius. Points are created between the range of start and end degrees, scaled by the scale factor. This calculation uses geosphere::destPoint. Distance is scaled using 1852 and the scale factor.

Usage

create_points(long, lat, start_deg, end_deg, radius, clr, fl, scale_factor)

Arguments

long	Longitude
lat	Latitude
start_deg	Starting degree
end_deg	Ending degree
radius	Maximum wind radius along that quadrant
clr	The color value to be used.
scale_factor	The scaling factor for recalibrating the distance
