R packages

Spatial

supercells: Creates superpixels based on input spatial data; this package works on spatial data with one variable (e.g., continuous raster), many variables (e.g., RGB rasters), and spatial patterns (e.g., areas in categorical rasters)

sabre: Calculates a degree of spatial association between regionalizations or categorical maps using the information-theoretical V-measure

motif: Enables spatial analysis such as search, change detection, and clustering to be performed on spatial patterns

landscapemetrics: Calculates landscape metrics of categorical map patterns

landscapetools: Provides utility functions for some of the less-glamorous tasks involved in landscape analysis

belg: Calculates the Boltzmann entropy of a landscape gradient

bespatial: Calculates several entropy metrics for spatial data inspired by Boltzmann’s entropy formula

comat: Creates co-occurrence matrices based on spatial data

regional: Calculates intra-regional and inter-regional similarities based on user-provided spatial vector objects (regions) and spatial raster objects (cells with values)

spatialising: Performs simulations of binary spatial raster data using the Ising model

patternogram: Quantifies the spatial autocorrelation of values from a set of points or a raster object

raceland: Pattern-based, zoneless method for analysis and visualization of racial topography

waterquality: Detects and quantifies water quality and cyanobacterial harmful algal bloom (CHABs) from remotely sensed imagery

reedsolomon: Applying the Reed-Solomon algorithm on remote sensing data

rgeopat2: Additional functions for ‘GeoPAT’ 2
