voxelCount {eRTG3D}

Apply voxel counting on a point cloud

Description

A rasterStack object is created, representing the 3–D voxel cube. The z axis is sliced into regular sections between the maximum and minimum value. For every height slice a raster with points per cell counts is created. Additionally the voxels can be standartized between 0 and 1.

Usage

voxelCount(
  points,
  extent,
  xyRes,
  zRes = xyRes,
  zMin,
  zMax,
  standartize = FALSE,
  verbose = FALSE
)

Arguments

points

a x, y, z data.frame

extent

a raster extent object of the extent to create the rasters

xyRes

resolution in the ground plane of the created rasters

zRes

resolution in the z axis (by default zRes = xyRes)

zMin

minimum z value

zMax

maximum height value

standartize

logical: standartize the values?

verbose

logical: print currently processed height band in raster stack?

Value

A rasterStack object, representing the 3–D voxel cube.

Examples

voxelCount(niclas, raster::extent(dem), 100, 100, 1000, 1400, standartize = TRUE)
