global statistics
global.Rd
Compute global statistics, that is summarized values of an entire SpatRaster.
If x
is very large global
can fail, except when fun
is one of these built-in functions "mean", "min", "max", "sum", "prod", "range" (min and max), "rms" (root mean square), "sd" (sample standard deviation), "std" (population standard deviation), "isNA" (number of cells that are NA), "notNA" (number of cells that are not NA).
The reason that this can fail with large raster and a custom function is that all values need to be loaded into memory. To circumvent this problem you can run global
with a sample of the cells.
You can compute a weighted mean or sum by providing a SpatRaster with weights.
Arguments
- x
SpatRaster
- fun
function to be applied to summarize the values by zone. Either as one or more of these built-in character values: "max", "min", "mean", "sum", "range", "rms" (root mean square), "sd", "std" (population sd, using
n
rather thann-1
), "isNA", "notNA"; or a proper R function (but these may fail for very large SpatRasters unless you specifymaxcell
)- ...
additional arguments passed on to
fun
- weights
NULL or SpatRaster
- maxcell
positive integer used to take a regular sample of
x
. Ignored by the built-in functions.

for "focal" or "moving window" operations.
Examples
r <- rast(ncols=10, nrows=10)
values(r) <- 1:ncell(r)
global(r, "sum")
#> sum
#> lyr.1 5050
global(r, "mean", na.rm=TRUE)
#> mean
#> lyr.1 50.5
x <- c(r, r/10)
global(x, c("sum", "mean", "sd"), na.rm=TRUE)
#> sum mean sd
#> lyr.1 5050 50.50 29.011492
#> lyr.1.1 505 5.05 2.901149
global(x, function(i) min(i) / max(i))
#> global
#> lyr.1 0.01
#> lyr.1.1 0.01
