A package that enables quantifying landscape diversity and structure at multiple scales. For these purposes Juhász-Nagy’s functions, i.e. compositional diversity (CD) and associatum (AS), are calculated.
You can install the development version of LandComp using the following command:
Example regular grids represent demonstrative spatial arrangements. They reflect a typical case when having presence/absence data on some landscape classes (e.g. vegetation types here) along a landscape. Note, there are three requirements of using the LandComp package:
The structure and the visualization of the example square grid data:
suppressPackageStartupMessages(library("sf"))
library(LandComp)
data("square_data")
plot(square_data)
str(square_data)
#> Classes 'sf' and 'data.frame': 300 obs. of 6 variables:
#> $ VT1 : num 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ...
#> $ VT2 : num 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ...
#> $ VT3 : num 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 ...
#> $ VT4 : num 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 ...
#> $ VT5 : num 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 ...
#> $ geometry:sfc_POLYGON of length 300; first list element: List of 1

#> - attr(*, "agr")= Factor w/ 3 levels "constant","aggregate",..: NA NA NA NA NA
#> ..- attr(*, "names")= chr [1:5] "VT1" "VT2" "VT3" "VT4" ...Two values of CD and AS measuring landscape diversity and structure can be calculated as e.g.
LandComp(x = square_data, aggregation_steps = 0:1)
