Dimensions of a SpatRaster or SpatVector and related objects

Get the number of rows (nrow), columns (ncol), cells (ncell), layers (nlyr), sources (nsrc), the size size (nlyr(x)*ncell(x)), or spatial resolution of a SpatRaster.

length returns the number of sub-datasets in a SpatRasterDataset or SpatVectorCollection.

For a SpatVector length(x) is the same as nrow(x).

You can also set the number of rows or columns or layers. When setting dimensions, all cell values are dropped.
