ConnCompLabel: Connected Components Labelling - Unique Patch Labelling

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

View source: R/ConnCompLabel.R

Description

ConnCompLabel is a 1 pass implementation of connected components labelling. Here it is applied to identify disjunt patches within a distribution.

The raster matrix can be a raster of class 'asc' (adehabitat package), 'RasterLayer' (raster package) or 'SpatialGridDataFrame' (sp package).

Usage

1

Arguments

mat

is a binary matrix of data with 0 representing background and 1 representing environment of interest. NA values are acceptable. The matrix can be a raster of class 'asc' (this & adehabitat package), 'RasterLayer' (raster package) or 'SpatialGridDataFrame' (sp package)

Value

A matrix of the same dim and class of mat in which unique components (individual patches) are numbered 1:n with 0 remaining background value.
