landisutils

Tools and utilities for preparing data for and running LANDIS-II simulations, and post-processing their outputs.

Installation

You can install the development version of landisutils like so:

remotes::install_github("FOR-CAST/landisutils")

Preparing data

Use prep*() functions to convert input data to LANDIS-II data formats.

ic_files <- prepInitialCommunities()

Creating LANDIS-II input files

Use insert*() functions when generating LANDIS-II input text files.

insertInitialCommunities(ic_files) |>
  writeLines() ## TODO

Creating LANDIS-II scenario files

Use scenario() to construct scenario files.

pix_size <- 250 ## TODO: get this from the prepared data
sim_time <- 200

scenario(
  cell_length = pix_size,
  duration = sim_time,
  extensions = list(
    succession = list(),
    disturbance = list(),
    other = list()
  ),
  name = "",
  path = file.path(),
  version = 7
)
## TODO - deal with more detailed customizations later
