In gregorp/rlandscape: Generates random landscapes with specifiable spatial characteristics

#' rlandscape: Random Landscape Generation for Harvest Scheduling Models
#' 
#' With the \code{\link{rlandscape}} function you can generate individual landscapes with 
#' explicit control over the control parameters (e.g. hole proportion, merge proportion,
#' number of points placed with each method) used to create the landscape.
#' The \code{link{rland}} function is designed for batch productions where the desired
#' characteristics of the resulting landscapes (e.g. degree mean, area coefficient
#' of variation) are specified. Rland uses previously run regressions to determine 
#' suitable control parameters. Rland can also be used through a graphical user interface (GUI).
#' This can be started by entering \code{rlandGui()} on the R console.
