Generate Poisson Point Pattern for Landscape Sites

This function is a low-level utility to generate spatial point patterns for the MICRO-LANDSCAPE point sets.

pointsPoisson(n, xLim = c(0, 1), yLim = c(0, 1))

Arguments

n

number of points to generate
xLim

a length 2 numeric vector of bounds for the sampling grid
yLim

a length 2 numeric vector of bounds for the sampling grid

Value

a list with two elements x and y corresponding to the sampled points

Examples

pointsPoisson(n=10, xLim=c(0,1), yLim=c(0,1))
