character. Method used for estimating the new cell values. One of:
bilinear
: bilinear interpolation (3x3 cell window). This is used by default if the first layer of x
is not categorical
average
: This can be a good choice with continuous variables if the output cells overlap with multiple input cells.
near
: nearest neighbor. This is used by default if the first layer of x
is categorical. This method is not a good choice for continuous values.
mode
: The modal value. This can be a good choice for categrical rasters, if the output cells overlap with multiple input cells.
cubic
: cubic interpolation (5x5 cell window).
cubicspline
: cubic B-spline interpolation. (5x5 cell window).
lanczos
: Lanczos windowed sinc resampling. (7x7 cell window).
sum
: the weighted sum of all non-NA contributing grid cells.
min, q1, median, q3, max
: the minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, or maximum value.
rms
: the root-mean-square value of all non-NA contributing grid cells.
