Get Segments
Description
Extract segment info from the segmented data.table.
Usage
getSegments(
data,
coord.type = c("coordinate", "distance", "both"),
group = FALSE
)
Arguments
data |
data.table returned from function tdtr() |
coord.type |
return actual coordinates, relative distance, or both (see Details) |
group |
separate by group, default is FALSE |
Details
Segment location information can be either in lat/lon coordinates, or expressed in terms of distance for a more anonymous presentation of small trajectories. (Full anonymity is not guaranteed as sufficiently long trajectories with small error parameters can provide enough data to match against a map.)
Value
data.table with segments only, containing information about the start and end locations, start and end time and distance covered by the segment
Examples
df <- data.frame(entity_id = rep(1, 12),
timestamp = c(1, 2, 4, 10, 14, 18, 20, 21, 24, 25, 28, 29),
lon = c(5.1299311, 5.129979, 5.129597, 5.130028, 5.130555, 5.131083,
5.132101, 5.132704, 5.133326, 5.133904, 5.134746, 5.135613),
lat = c(52.092839, 52.092827, 52.092571, 52.092292, 52.092076, 52.091821,
52.091420, 52.091219, 52.091343, 52.091651, 52.092138, 52.092698))
# First generate segments
res30 <- tdtr(df,
group_col = NULL,
max_error = 30)
# Then extract a data.table of segments
getSegments(res30)
# Calculating distance instead of coordinates
segs <- getSegments(res30, coord.type = "distance")
segs
plot(c(0, 700), c(0, 200), col = "white",
xlab = "East-West distance",
ylab = "North-South distance")
with(segs,
segments(seg_start_lon_dist, seg_start_lat_dist,
seg_end_lon_dist, seg_end_lat_dist))
