inside.swin {ads}

Test whether points are inside a sampling window

Description

Function inside.swin tests whether points lie inside or outside a given sampling window.

Usage

inside.swin(x, y, w, bdry=TRUE)

Arguments

x

a vector of x coordinates of points.

y

a vector of y coordinates of points.

w

an object of class "swin" (see swin) defining the sampling window.

bdry

by default bdry = TRUE. If FALSE, points located on the boundary of the sampling window are considered to be outside.

Value

A logical vector whose ith entry is TRUE if the corresponding point (x[i],y[i]) is inside w, FALSE otherwise.

Note

For "complex" sampling windows, points inside the triangles to remove or on their boundary, are considered outside.
