convert2PolySet {raptr}

Convert object to PolySet data

Description

This function converts sf::st_sf() and sp::SpatialPolygonsDataFrame() objects to PBSmapping::PolySet() objects.

Usage

convert2PolySet(x, n_preallocate)

## S3 method for class 'SpatialPolygonsDataFrame'
convert2PolySet(x, n_preallocate = 10000L)

## S3 method for class 'SpatialPolygons'
convert2PolySet(x, n_preallocate = 10000L)

## S3 method for class 'sf'
convert2PolySet(x, n_preallocate = 10000L)

Arguments

x

sf::st_sf(), sp::SpatialPolygons() or sp::SpatialPolygonsDataFrame() object.

n_preallocate

integer How much memory should be preallocated for processing? Ideally, this number should equal the number of vertices in the sp::SpatialPolygons() object. If data processing is taking too long consider increasing this value.

Value

PBSmapping::PolySet() object.

Note

Be aware that this function is designed to be as fast as possible, but as a result it depends on C++ code and if used inappropriately this function will crash R.

## Not run: 
# generate sf object
sim_pus <- sim.pus(225L)
