River shapefiles for receiver distance calculation #63

Closed PieterjanVerhelst closed 2 years ago

PieterjanVerhelst commented 3 years ago

Overview of the various river shapefiles to calculate the distance between detection stations are:

The file BJ3D.shp is a SpatialLinesDataFrame, but contains the contours of the river. Is this useful? The euclidean distance between stations can be calculated within these contours. If this is not useful, I can create a SpatialLinesDataFrame in GIS. See image below for better understanding.

Don't know if my answer is still relevant, but I think it would be nice to work with contours if possible. For instance if you later apply it on a 2D study (VPS system). What is your opinion?

PieterjanVerhelst commented 3 years ago

@IPauwels this is irrelevant for the question ;-). In that case a polygon shapefile can be used.

IPauwels commented 3 years ago

Ok, so what is your question then?

PieterjanVerhelst commented 3 years ago

There is no question, just an overview upon Damiano's request of the various shapefiles that will be uploaded to test code that calculates distance between receivers automatically.

Other shapefiles have been created and added to the repo, so this documantary issue became redundant.
