rast.grad: Creates gradient rasters from a raster object.

In ctmcMove: Modeling Animal Movement with Continuous-Time Discrete-Space Markov Chains

Description

This function takes a raster stack or raster object and creates two matrices for each raster layer, one which contains the x coordinates of the gradient of the raster layer and one which contains the y coordinates of the gradient of the raster layer.

Usage

rast.grad(rasterstack)

Arguments

rasterstack

A raster layer or raster stack from package "raster".

Value

xy	A matrix of x and y coordinates of each cell in the raster stack or raster layer. The order is the order of the cells in the raster object.
grad.x	a matrix where each column is the x-coordinates of the gradient for one raster layer
grad.y	a matrix where each column is the y-coordinates of the gradient for one raster layer
rast.grad.x	A raster stack where each raster layer is the x-coordinates of the gradient for one covariate
rast.grad.y	A raster stack where each raster layer is the x-coordinates of the gradient for one covariate
