Get contours from a bathymetric raster

Usage

get_contours(bathy_raster, surface = 0, depths = 1)

Arguments

bathy_raster

SpatRaster object with the bathymetry data.

surface

numeric. The surface elevation of the lake. Default is 0.

depths

numeric. The depths at which to calculate the area. If a single numeric value is provided, the function will calculate the area at each depth from the surface to the minimum depth of the bathymetry raster at intervals of the provided value. If a vector of numeric values is provided, the function will calculate the area at each depth specified in the vector. Default is 1.

Value

sf LINESTRING of the contours.

Examples

shoreline <- readRDS(system.file("extdata/rotoma_shoreline.rds",
package = "bathytools"))
point_data <- readRDS(system.file("extdata/depth_points.rds",
package = "bathytools"))
bathy_raster <- rasterise_bathy(shoreline = shoreline,
point_data = point_data, crs = 2193, res = 8)
