calc_full_extent {ebirdst} R Documentation

## Calculate the spatial extent of non-zero data in a raster

### Description

eBird Status and Trends data cubes are defined over broad areas, filling in regions where the species doesn't occur with zeros (predicted absences) or NAs (regions where models weren't fit). When producing maps, it's best to only display the spatial extent where the species occurs. To show determine an ideal extent for mapping, this function trims away 0 and NA values. When called on a RasterStack (e.g., a data cube consisting of all 52 weeks), this function returns the extent of occurrence across all layers.To access a pre-calculated extent for the full annual cycle use load_fac_map_parameters().

### Usage

calc_full_extent(x, aggregate = TRUE)


### Arguments

 x Raster object; either a full 52-week data cube or a subset. aggregate logical; whether data should be aggregated by a factor of 3 in each dimension prior to calculating the extent. When working with the high resolution cubes, data should be aggregated otherwise processing times will be extremely long.

### Value

The extent of occurrence as a raster Extent object.

### Examples

## Not run:
# simple toy example
r <- raster::raster(nrow = 100, ncol = 100)
r[5025:5075] <- 1
raster::extent(r)
calc_full_extent(r)

path <- get_species_path("example_data")
