stampr: Spatial Temporal Analysis of Moving Polygons

Description

The Package stampr provides tools for performing spatial temporal analysis of moving polygons. These tools allow the calculation of directional relationships, distance relations, and other basic functionality, such as global change metrics. More details about each of these functions can be found in its help documentation.

Details

stampr's functions utilize the sf objects (as of version 0.3.0) from the package sf. Polygon relationships are still understudied in the field of geographic information science, but hopefully stampr can provide users with a platform for new developments and applied research looking at interesting geographical phenomena.
