R Documentation

Function to compute AOO with grid uncertainty systematically with stopping rule and restrictions

Description

gridUncertaintyRestricted determines the number of area of occupancy (AOO) grid cells occupied by a species or ecosystem systematically. It will only stop when the AOO calculated does not improve (decrease) after a set number of split scenarios. The number of grids within each split is restricted to only include those which are already found nearby to ones already with the minimum AOO.

Usage

gridUncertaintyRestricted(
  input.data,
  grid.size,
  n.AOO.improvement,
  min.percent.rule = FALSE,
  percent = 1
)

Arguments

`input.data`	Spatial object of an ecosystem or species distribution. Please use a CRS with units measured in metres.
`grid.size`	A number specifying the width of the desired grid square (in same units as your coordinate reference system)
`n.AOO.improvement`	Specifies the minimum number of rounds the calculated AOO is not improved before stopping the function.
`min.percent.rule`	Logical. If `TRUE`, a minimum area threshold must be passed before a grid is counted as an AOO grid.
`percent`	Numeric. The minimum percent to be applied as a threshold for the `min.percent.rule`.

Value

A list containing the following:

Data frame of results showing the minimum AOO calculated for each shift scenario
Single SpatialPolygonsDataFrame containing the AOO grid which would produce the minimum AOO calculated
