mosaic: mosaic SpatRasters

Description

Combine adjacent and (partly) overlapping SpatRasters to form a single new SpatRaster. Values in overlapping cells are averaged (by default) or can be computed with another function.

The SpatRasters must have the same origin and spatial resolution.

This method is similar to the simpler, but much faster, merge method.

Usage

# S4 method for SpatRaster,SpatRaster
mosaic(x, y, ..., fun="mean", filename="", overwrite=FALSE, wopt=list())
# S4 method for SpatRasterCollection,missing
mosaic(x, fun="mean", filename="", ...)

Value

SpatRaster

Arguments

x

SpatRaster

y

object of same class as x

...

additional SpatRasters

fun

character. One of "mean", "median", "min", "max", "modal", "sum", "first", "last"

filename

character. Output filename

overwrite

logical. If TRUE, filename is overwritten

wopt

list with named options for writing files as in writeRaster

Examples

x <- rast(xmin=-110, xmax=-60, ymin=40, ymax=70, res=1, vals=1)
y <- rast(xmin=-95, xmax=-45, ymax=60, ymin=30, res=1, vals=2)
z <- rast(xmin=-80, xmax=-30, ymax=50, ymin=20, res=1, vals=3)

m1 <- mosaic(x, y, z)

m2 <- mosaic(z, y, x)

# with many SpatRasters, make a SpatRasterCollection from a list
rlist <- list(x, y, z)
rsrc <- sprc(rlist)

m <- mosaic(rsrc)
