DESCRIPTION

45       r.li.patchnum calculates the "patch number index" as:
46        f(sample_area)= Patch_Number
47
48       This  index is calculated using a 4 neighbour algorithm, diagonal cells
49       are ignored when tracing a patch.
50

NOTES

52       Do not use absolute path names  for  the  config  and  output  file/map
53       parameters.    If   the   "moving   window"   method  was  selected  in
54       g.gui.rlisetup, then the output will be  a  raster  map,  otherwise  an
55       ASCII  file  will  be  generated  in  the  folder  C:\Users\userxy\App‐
56       Data\Roaming\GRASS7\r.li\output\            (MS-Windows)             or
57       $HOME/.grass7/r.li/output/ (GNU/Linux).
58
59       If  the  sample area contains only NULL values then it is considered to
60       have zero patches.
61

EXAMPLES

63       To calculate patch number index on map my_map, using my_conf configura‐
64       tion  file  (previously defined with g.gui.rlisetup) and saving results
65       in my_out, run:
66       r.li.patchnum input=my_map conf=my_conf out=my_out
67
68       Forest map (Spearfish sample dataset) example:
69       g.region raster=landcover.30m -p
70       r.mapcalc "forests = if(landcover.30m >= 41 && landcover.30m <= 43,1,null())"
71       r.li.patchnum input=forests conf=movwindow7 out=forests_patchnum_mov7
72       r.univar forests_patchnum_mov7
73
74       Forest map (North Carolina sample dataset) example:
75       g.region raster=landclass96 -p
76       r.mapcalc "forests = if(landclass96 == 5, 1, null() )"
77       r.li.patchnum input=forests conf=movwindow7 out=forests_patchnum_mov7
78       # verify
79       r.univar forests_patchnum_mov7
80       r.to.vect input=forests output=forests type=area

82       d.rast forests_patchnum_mov7
83       d.vect forests type=boundary
