NAME

r.li.padrange - Calculates range of patch area size on a raster map

KEYWORDS

raster, landscape structure analysis, patch index

SYNOPSIS

r.li.padrange
r.li.padrange --help
r.li.padrange input=name config=name output=name [--overwrite] [--help] [--verbose]
[--quiet] [--ui]

Flags:
--overwrite
Allow output files to overwrite existing files

--help
Print usage summary

--verbose
Verbose module output

--quiet
Quiet module output

--ui
Force launching GUI dialog

Parameters:
input=name [required]
Name of input raster map

config=name [required]
Configuration file

output=name [required]
Name for output raster map

DESCRIPTION

r.li.padrange calculates the range of patch area sizes in hectares as:
with:

· amax: max patch area size

· amin: min patch area size

This index is calculated using a 4 neighbour algorithm, diagonal cells are ignored when
tracing a patch.

NOTES

Do not use absolute path names for the config and output file/map parameters. If the
"moving window" method was selected in g.gui.rlisetup, then the output will be a raster
map, otherwise an ASCII file will be generated in the folder
C:\Users\userxy\AppData\Roaming\GRASS7\r.li\output\ (MS-Windows) or
$HOME/.grass7/r.li/output/ (GNU/Linux).

If the sample area contains only NULL values then r.li.padrange returns NULL.

EXAMPLES

To calculate range of patch area size index on map my_map, using my_conf configuration
file (previously defined with g.gui.rlisetup) and saving results in my_out, run:
r.li.padrange input=my_map conf=my_conf output=my_out

Forest map (Spearfish sample dataset) example:
g.region raster=landcover.30m -p
r.mapcalc "forests = if(landcover.30m >= 41 && landcover.30m <= 43,1,null())"
r.li.padrange input=forests conf=movwindow7 out=forests_padrange_mov7
r.univar forests_padrange_mov7

Forest map (North Carolina sample dataset) example:
g.region raster=landclass96 -p
r.mapcalc "forests = if(landclass96 == 5, 1, null() )"
r.li.padrange input=forests conf=movwindow7 out=forests_padrange_mov7
# verify
