In isoband: Generate Isolines and Isobands from Regularly Spaced Elevation Grids

Efficient calculation of isolines and isobands from elevation grid

Description

Efficient calculation of isolines and isobands from elevation grid

Usage

isobands(x, y, z, levels_low, levels_high)

isolines(x, y, z, levels)

Arguments

x	Numeric vector specifying the x locations of the grid points.
y	Numeric vector specifying the y locations of the grid points.
z	Numeric matrix specifying the elevation values for each grid point.
levels_low, levels_high	Numeric vectors of minimum/maximum z values for which isobands should be generated. Any z values that are exactly equal to a value in levels_low are considered part of the corresponding isoband, but any z values that are exactly equal to a value in levels_high are not considered part of the corresponding isoband. In other words, the intervals specifying isobands are closed at their lower boundary and open at their upper boundary.
levels	Numeric vector of z values for which isolines should be generated.
