pop.process: Population processing

In obrady/SpatialDengue: Fits and simulates a spatial model of the vector-borne disease dengue

Description

This function processes a raster of human population (counts) to be compatible with the dengue model

Usage

pop.process(sgpop, agg = FALSE)

Arguments

sgpop	A raster of human population counts
agg	Multiplier for level of aggregation of the raster, defaults to FALSE (0)

Details

Processes performed involve i) making all pixels integer value (so each pixel contains a discrete number of people) ii) if supplied "agg" determines the scale of pixel aggregation, e.g. agg = 10 will convert a raster with pixels sized 100m x 100m to 1000m x 1000m

Examples

data(sgpop)
sgpop10 <- pop.process(sgpop, agg = 10)
par(mfrow = c(2, 1))
plot(sgpop)
plot(sgpop10)
