In kbvernon/rHike: Functions for Computing Hiking Efficiency and Velocity

Overview

Nominally, rHike bridges the raster and gdistance packages by defining various hiking functions to generate efficiency and velocity rasters. Truthfully, though, the motivation for this package is completely selfish: (a) I have this recurrent use-case, and (b) I wanted to learn how to write an R package. So, you know, caveat emptor.

Installation

The rHike package is not currently available on CRAN, but you can install the development version from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("kbvernon/rHike")

Detailed Example

For an example of this package in action, see Estimating hiking velocity with rHike.
