as.data.frame.tess: Convert Tessellation to Data Frame

Description

Converts a spatial tessellation object to a data frame.

Usage

# S3 method for tess
as.data.frame(x, …)

Arguments

x

Tessellation (object of class "tess").

…

Further arguments passed to as.data.frame.owin or as.data.frame.im and ultimately to as.data.frame.default to determine the row names and other features.

Value

A data frame with columns named x, y, Tile, and possibly other columns.

Details

This function converts the tessellation x to a data frame.

If x is a pixel image tessellation (a pixel image with factor values specifying the tile membership of each pixel) then this pixel image is converted to a data frame by as.data.frame.im. The result is a data frame with columns x and y giving the pixel coordinates, and Tile identifying the tile containing the pixel.

If x is a tessellation consisting of a rectangular grid of tiles or a list of polygonal tiles, then each tile is converted to a data frame by as.data.frame.owin, and these data frames are joined together, yielding a single large data frame containing columns x, y giving the coordinates of vertices of the polygons, and Tile identifying the tile.
