.UD-class: The UD class

Description

The .UD, .UDStack and .UDBurstStack class represent a raster of a simple abstraction of the utilization distribution (UD) where all probabilities necessarily sum to one. A .UDStack object can be obtained with the function UDStack.

Arguments

Slots

crs: part of the Raster-class
data: part of the Raster-class
extent: part of the Raster-class
file: part of the Raster-class
history: part of the Raster-class
names: part of the Raster-class
legend: part of the Raster-class
method: stores the method that was used to calculate the utilization distribution (UD), e.g. dynamic Brownian Bridge
ncols: part of the Raster-class
nrows: part of the Raster-class
rotated: part of the Raster-class
rotation: part of the Raster-class
title: part of the Raster-class

Methods

contour: signature(object = ".UD"): adds a contour line to a plot, also for .UDStack
emd: signature(object = ".UD"): quantifies similarity between utilization distributions, also for .UDStack
getVolumeUD: signature(object = ".UD"): modifies the .UD/.UDStack raster
outerProbability: signature(object = ".UD"): calculates the animal occurrence probabilities at the border of the raster (only for .UD class)
plot: signature(object = ".UD"): plots the raster from a .UD/.UDStack object with re-size insensitive proportions
raster2contour: signature(object = ".UD"): converts a raster to contour lines, also for .UDStack
show: signature(object = ".UD"): displays summary the .UD/.UDStack object
summary: signature(object = ".UD"): summarizes the information of the raster from a .UD/.UDStack object
subset: signature(object = ".UD"): subsets the .UD/.UDStack object
split: signature(object = ".UDStack"): splits a .UDStack into a list of .UD objects
