NAME¶
r.li.simpson - Calculates Simpson’s diversity index on a raster map
KEYWORDS¶

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.simpson calculates the "Simpson’s
diversity index" as:
with:
- i: patch type
- m: number of different patch types
- pi: proportional abundance of patch type i
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 input raster map contains only NULL values then r.li.simpson returns NULL.
EXAMPLES¶
To calculate Simpson’s diversity 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.simpson 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.simpson input=forests conf=movwindow7 out=forests_simpson_mov7 r.univar forests_simpson_mov7
Forest map (North Carolina sample dataset) example:
g.region raster=landclass96 -p r.mapcalc "forests = if(landclass96 == 5, 1, null() )" r.li.simpson input=forests conf=movwindow7 out=forests_simpson_mov7 # verify r.univar forests_simpson_mov7 r.to.vect input=forests output=forests type=area d.mon wx0 d.rast forests_simpson_mov7 d.vect forests type=boundary
