spa_eval {fsr}

Evaluate the membership degree of a point in a pgeometry object

Description

spa_eval() evaluates the membership degree of a given point in a spatial plateau object of any type. It returns a value in [0, 1] that indicates to which extent the point belongs to the pgeometry object.

Usage

spa_eval(pgo, point)

Arguments

pgo

A pgeometry object of any type.

point

An sfg object of the type POINT.

Details

The spa_eval() returns the membership degree of a simple point object (i.e., sfg object) in a given spatial plateau object (i.e., pgeometry object). This evaluation depends on the following basic cases:

• if the simple point object belongs to the interior or boundary of one component of the spatial plateau object, it returns the membership degree of that component.

• if the simple point object intersects more components (e.g., boundaries of region components, or different line components), it returns the maximum membership degree of all intersected components.

• if the simple point object is disjoint to the support of the spatial plateau object, it returns 0.

Value

A numeric value between 0 and 1 that indicates the membership degree of a point (i.e., sfg object) in a spatial plateau object (i.e., pgeometry object).
