snlwf: The 1992 Utah Snow Load Equations

In beanb2/snowload: Ground snow load prediction functions.

Description

This function uses county-specific parameters stored internally in the snowload package to make maps of the 1992 ground snow load equations (referred to as SNLW).

Usage

snlwf(formula = ~ELEVATION, newdata, feet = FALSE)

Arguments

newdata	A spatial data object containing the desired prediction locations. Note that non missing predictions are only provided for locations within the state of Utah.
feet	A logical indicating whether elevation is measured in meters or feet.
A	forumla of the form ~ELEVATION. The function assumes that the last given variable corresponds to the elevation column and all other arguments are ignored.
elevVar	The name of the variable in DEM corresponding to elevation. The elevation should be specified in meters or feet.

Value

A SpatialPointsDataFrame version of dem that includes a snlw prediction column.
