nlm_distancegradient

Source: R/nlm_distancegradient.R
nlm_distancegradient.Rd

Simulates a distance-gradient neutral landscape model.

Usage

nlm_distancegradient(ncol, nrow, resolution = 1, origin, rescale = TRUE)

Arguments

ncol

[numerical(1)]
Number of columns forming the raster.

nrow

[numerical(1)]
Number of rows forming the raster.

resolution

[numerical(1)]
Resolution of the raster.

origin

[numerical(4)]
Edge coordinates of the origin (raster::extent with xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax) of the distance measurement.

rescale

[logical(1)]
If TRUE (default), the values are rescaled between 0-1. Otherwise, the distance in raster units is calculated.

Value

RasterLayer

Details

The function takes the number of columns and rows as input and creates a RasterLayer with the same extent. Origin is a numeric vector of xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax for a rectangle inside the raster from which the distance is measured.
