lixelize_lines {spNetwork}

Cut lines into lixels

Description

Cut the lines of a feature collection of linestrings into lixels with a specified minimal distance may fail if the line geometries are self intersecting.

Usage

lixelize_lines(lines, lx_length, mindist = NULL)

Arguments

lines

The sf object with linestring geometry type to modify

lx_length

The length of a lixel

mindist

The minimum length of a lixel. After cut, if the length of the final lixel is shorter than the minimum distance, then it is added to the previous lixel. if NULL, then mindist = maxdist/10. Note that the segments that are already shorter than the minimum distance are not modified.

Value

An sf object with linestring geometry type

Examples

data(mtl_network)
lixels <- lixelize_lines(mtl_network,150,50)
