Generate grid polygons

Returns a sf object that includes x- and y- index by using two inputs ncutsx and ncutsy, which are x- and y-directional splits, respectively.

Usage

par_make_grid(points_in = NULL, ncutsx = NULL, ncutsy = NULL)

Arguments

points_in

sf or SpatVector object. Target points of computation. character(1) of file path is also acceptable.

ncutsx

integer(1). The number of splits along x-axis.

ncutsy

integer(1). The number of splits along y-axis.

Value

A sf or SpatVector object of computation grids with unique grid id (CGRIDID).

Note

Grids are generated based on the extent of points_in first, then exhaustive grids will be filtered by the intersection between these and points_in. Thus, the number of generated grids may be smaller than ncutsx * ncutsy.
