plotAep: Plot annual energy production

Description

Plots sectoral annual energy production (AEP) from an aep object in a rose plot.

Usage

plotAep(aep, show.total=TRUE, ...)
plaep(aep, show.total=TRUE, ...)

Arguments

aep

AEP object created by aep.

show.total

If TRUE the total AEP is added to the plot.

Optional graphical parameters

The following graphical parameters can optionally be added to customize the plot:

border.leg: Border colour(s) for the legend. One colour for each wind speed bin or a single colour -- default is same ascol.
bty.leg: Type of box to be drawn around the legend. Allowed values are"n"(no box, the default) and"o".
cex: Amount by which text on the plot should be scaled relative to the default (which is1), as numeric. To be used for scaling of all texts at once.
cex.axis: Amount by which axis annotations should be scaled, as numeric value.
cex.lab: Amount by which axis labels should be scaled, as numeric value.
cex.leg: Amount by which legend text should be scaled, as numeric value.
circles: Manual definition of circles to be drawn, as numeric vector of the form c(inner circle, outer circle, interval between the circles).
col: Vector of colours -- one colour for each wind speed bin or a single colour ifaeponly contains the total AEP.
col.axis: Colour to be used for axis annotations -- default is"gray45".
col.border: Colour to be used for sector borders -- default isNULL(no border is drawn).
col.circle: Colour to be used for circles -- default is"gray45".
col.cross: Colour to be used for axis lines -- default is"gray45".
col.lab: Colour to be used for axis labels -- default is"black".
col.leg: Colour to be used for legend text -- default is"black".
fg: IfTRUE, sectors are plotted in foreground (on top of axis lines and circles) -- default isFALSE.
lty.circle: Line type of circles -- default is"dashed". Seeparfor available line types.
lty.cross: Line type of axis lines -- default is"solid". Seeparfor available line types.
lwd.border: Line width of the sector borders -- default is0.5. Only used ifcol.borderis set.
lwd.circle: Line width of circles, as numeric value -- default is0.7.
lwd.cross: Line width of axis lines, as numeric value -- default is0.7.
pos.axis: Position of axis labels in degree, as numeric value -- default is60.
sec.space: Space between plotted sectors, as numeric value between0and1-- default is0.2.
title.leg: Alternative legend title, as string.
width.leg: Widths of legend space relative to plot space, as numeric value between0and1. If0, the legend is omitted, default value is0.15.
x.intersp: Horizontal interspacing factor for legend text, as numeric -- default is0.4.
y.intersp: Vertical line distance for legend text, as numeric -- default is0.4.
