Animate a map

Animate (sequentially plot) the layers of a SpatRaster, or the geometries of a SpatVector, to create a movie.

Usage

# S4 method for class 'SpatRaster'
animate(x, pause=0.25, main, range=NULL, maxcell=50000, n=1, ...)
# S4 method for class 'SpatVector'
animate(x, pause=0.25, main="", n=1, add=NULL, ...)

Arguments

x

SpatRaster or SpatVector

pause

numeric. How long should the pause be between layers?

main

title for each layer. For SpatRaster, if not supplied, the z-value is used if available. Otherwise the names are used.

range

numeric vector of length 2. Range of values to plot, If NULL the range of all layers is used. If NA the range of each individual layer is used

maxcell

positive integer. Maximum number of cells to use for the plot. If maxcell < ncell(x), spatSample(type="regular") is used before plotting

n

integer > 0. Number of plotting loops

add

logical. If TRUE, add all geometries to the current plot. If left NULL, add is FALSE for the first geometry and TRUE for the remaining ones.

Additional arguments passed to plot

Value

Examples

s <- rast(system.file("ex/logo.tif", package="terra"))   
animate(s, n=1)




v <- vect(system.file("ex/lux.shp", package="terra"))
animate(v, n=2)


animate(v[order(v$AREA), ])
