In geofis/coastr: Tools for coastal analysis using R

Description

Create transects of user-defined length along an input line

Usage

create_transect(
  x,
  transect_spacing = NULL,
  length_left = if (all(!is.null(transect_spacing), is.numeric(transect_spacing)))
    transect_spacing,
  length_right = if (all(!is.null(transect_spacing), is.numeric(transect_spacing)))
    transect_spacing,
  reverse = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

x	name of an object of class sf, or a path to a file readable by the sf::st_read function, which must contain geometries of type LINESTRING or MULTILINESTRING.
transect_spacing	character or numeric. If numeric, represents the spacing between transects in x CRS units. If character, accepts only the string 'vertices' as argument (allows partial matching)
length_left	numeric; length of transects to the right of the input line
reverse	logical; reverse orientation of transects; default FALSE
...	other arguments passed to sf::st_read.
