NAME

r.li.patchnum - Calculates patch number index on a raster map, using a 4 neighbour algorithm.

KEYWORDS

raster, landscape structure analysis, patch index

SYNOPSIS

r.li.patchnum
r.li.patchnum help
r.li.patchnum input=name conf=string output=name [--overwrite] [--verbose] [--quiet]

Flags:

--overwrite
Allow output files to overwrite existing files
--verbose
Verbose module output
--quiet
Quiet module output

Parameters:

input=name
Name of input raster map
conf=string
Configuration file
output=name
Name for output raster map

DESCRIPTION

r.li.patchnum is a patch index for r.li program.
It calculates the function
f(sample_area)= Patch_Number
This index is calculated using a 4 neighbour algorithm

EXAMPLES

To calculate patch number index on map my_map, using my_conf configuration file and saving results in my_out file run:
r.li.patchnumber input=my_map conf=my_conf out=my_out

NOTES

An that is full of null values is considered to have zero patch.
If you want to have null values instead run
r.null setnull=0 map=my_map
after index calculation.
