centroids

centroids,SpatVector-method

Get the centroids of polygons or lines, or centroid-like points that are guaranteed to be inside the polygons or on the lines.

spatial

Methods for spatial data analysis with vector (points, lines, polygons) and raster (grid) data. Methods for vector data include geometric operations such as intersect and buffer. Raster methods include local, focal, global, zonal and geometric operations. The predict and interpolate methods facilitate the use of regression type (interpolation, machine learning) models for spatial prediction, including with satellite remote sensing data. Processing of very large files is supported. See the manual and tutorials on <https://rspatial.org/> to get started. 'terra' replaces the 'raster' package ('terra' can do more, and it is faster and easier to use).

centroids function

<dl><dt>x</dt>
<dd>SpatVector</dd><dt>inside</dt>
<dd>logical. If <code>TRUE</code> the points returned are guaranteed to be inside the polygons or on the lines, but they are not the true centroids. True centroids may be outside a polygon, for example when a polygon is "bean shaped", and they are unlikely to be on their line</dd></dl>
