redist (version 3.1.5)

redist.prec.pop.overlap: Compare the Population Overlap Across Plans at the Precinct Level

Description

Compare the Population Overlap Across Plans at the Precinct Level

Usage

redist.prec.pop.overlap(
  plan_old,
  plan_new,
  total_pop,
  weighting = "s",
  normalize = TRUE,
  index_only = FALSE,
  return_mat = FALSE
)

Arguments

plan_old

The reference plan to compare against

plan_new

The new plan to compare to the reference plan

total_pop

The total population by precinct This can also take a redist_map object and will use the population in that object. If nothing is provided, it weights all entries in plan equally.

weighting

Should weighting be done by sum of populations `'s'`, mean of populations `'m'`, geometric mean of populations `'g'`, or none `'n'`

normalize

Should entries be normalized by the total population

index_only

Default is FALSE. TRUE returns only one numeric index, the mean of the upper triangle of the matrix, under the weighting and normalization chosen.

return_mat

Defaults to FALSE, where it returns the summary by row. If TRUE returns matrix with length(plan_old) rows and columns. Ignored if index_only = TRUE.

Value

numeric vector with length(plan_old) entries

Examples

Run this code
# NOT RUN {
set.seed(5)
data(iowa)
iowa_map <- redist_map(iowa, total_pop = pop, pop_tol = 0.01, ndists = 4)
plans <- redist_smc(iowa_map, 2, silent = TRUE)
plans_mat <- get_plans_matrix(plans)
ov_vec <- redist.prec.pop.overlap(plans_mat[, 1], plans_mat[, 2], iowa_map)
redist.prec.pop.overlap(plans_mat[, 1], plans_mat[, 2], iowa_map,  weighting = 's',
normalize = FALSE, index_only = TRUE)
