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

-
Name of file that contains the weight to calculate the index - output=name [required]
-
Name for output raster map
DESCRIPTION¶
r.li.cwed (contrast weighted edge density) calculates the edge density between patch types specified:
with:
- k: attribute
- m: number of non-null attributes in the sampling area
- eik: total length of edge in landscape between patch types i and k
- dik: dissimilarity (edge contrast weight) between patch types i and k
- Area: total landscape area
The input file contains a row for each couple of patch type that we want to consider in the calculation. Each row must be saved using this syntax:
patchType1,patchType2,dissimilarityBetweenPatchType1andPatchType2
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\GRASS8\r.li\output\ (MS-Windows) or $HOME/.grass8/r.li/output/ (GNU/Linux).
If the sample area contains only NULL values it is considered to
have 0 patch and CWED=0. If Area is 0 r.li.cwed returns -1. This is
only possible if the map is masked.
If you want to change these -1 values to NULL, run subsequently on the
resulting map:
r.null setnull=-1 input=my_mapafter index calculation.
EXAMPLES¶
To calculate the contrast weighted edge density 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.cwed input=my_map conf=my_conf output=my_out \
path=/path/to/weights.csv
Example for input "weights.csv" file:
12,16,0.65 44,123,0.32 56,12,0.54 23,66,0.99
