DESCRIPTION
r.li.padsd calculates the standard deviation of patch area sizes in
hectares as:
with:
- MPS: mean patch area size
- a_i: area of patch i
- N_patch: number of patches
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\GRASS8\r.li\output\
(MS-Windows) or
$HOME/.grass8/r.li/output/
(GNU/Linux).
The result is NULL if the sample area contains only NULL values.
EXAMPLES
To calculate patch area distribution standard deviation 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.padsd 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.padsd input=forests conf=movwindow7 out=forests_padsd_mov7
r.univar forests_padsd_mov7
Forest map (North Carolina sample dataset) example:
g.region raster=landclass96 -p
r.mapcalc "forests = if(landclass96 == 5, 1, null() )"
r.li.padsd input=forests conf=movwindow7 out=forests_padsd_mov7
# verify
r.univar forests_padsd_mov7
r.to.vect input=forests output=forests type=area
