scaleSquareShape: Scales square shapefile

In madorning/energySimMD: Spatial Energy Simulation: Linking Subsurface to Surface Resources

Description

Scales input square to desired area. Units must be the same. Suggest using scaleShape instead.

Usage

scaleSquareShape(inShape, newArea)

Arguments

inShape	A square shapefile
newArea	A number for the desired area

Value

A scaled square shapefile with specified area and projection of inShape

points <- rbind(c(250,250),c(250,1750),c(1750,1750),c(1750,250),c(250,250))
shape <- SpatialPolygons(list(Polygons(list(Polygon(points)), 'auOutline')))
shape2 <- scaleSquareShape(inShape = shape,newArea = 1500000)
plot(shape, axes = TRUE)
plot(shape2, add = TRUE, border = 'red')
