redist (version 4.2.0)

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
)

Value

numeric vector with length(plan_old) entries

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.

Examples

Run this code
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)
