clipLevel2BVPM: Clip GEDI Canopy Cover and Vertical Profile Metrics by Coordinates

Description

This function clips GEDI level2B derived Canopy Cover and Vertical Profile metrics a within given bounding coordinates

Usage

clipLevel2BVPM(level2BVPM, xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax)

Arguments

level2BVPM

A GEDI Level2B object (output of readLevel1B function). An S4 object of class "data.table".

xmin

Numeric. West longitude (x) coordinate of the bounding rectangle, in decimal degrees.

xmax

Numeric. East longitude (x) coordinate of the bounding rectangle, in decimal degrees.

ymin

Numeric. South latitude (y) coordinate of the bounding rectangle, in decimal degrees.

ymax

Numeric. North latitude (y) coordinate of the bounding rectangle, in decimal degrees.

Value

Returns an S4 object of class data.table-class containing the Canopy Cover and Vertical Profile metrics.
