Get the centroids of polygons or lines, or centroid-like points that are guaranteed to be inside the polygons or on the lines.
Usage
# S4 method for class 'SpatVector'
centroids(x, inside=FALSE)
Arguments
- x
SpatVector
- inside
logical. If TRUE
the points returned are guaranteed to be inside the polygons or on the lines, but they are not the true centroids. True centroids may be outside a polygon, for example when a polygon is "bean shaped", and they are unlikely to be on their line
Value
SpatVector of points
Examples
f <- system.file("ex/lux.shp", package="terra")
v <- vect(f)
x <- centroids(v)
y <- centroids(v, TRUE)
