Creates Extent of occurrence (EOO) Polygon
Description
makeEOO
is a generic function that creates a minimum convex polygon
enclosing all occurrences of the provided spatial data. If the input provided
is a raster layer, the points are taken from a buffer that has the radius of
half of the shorter edge of the pixel around the centroid.
Usage
makeEOO(input.data)
Arguments
input.data |
Spatial object of an ecosystem or species distribution. Please use a CRS with units measured in metres. |
Value
An object of class SpatVect representing the EOO of
