Uninterpretable Output of the `calc_indicators()` function for soil properties

[Shirobakaidou]

I was trying to calculate soil indicators using the calc_indicators() function. The expected output should be three values (mean, median, sd) for each feature, but the eventual output was a single NA for all features.

My script is as follows:

library(wdpar) library(geodata) library(sf) library(ggplot2) library(mapme.biodiversity) library(tidyverse)

Download gadm of MDG

gadm <- gadm(country = "Madagascar", resolution = 1, level = 0, path = paste0(getwd(),'/data')) %>% st_as_sf()

Download wdpa

wdpa <- wdpa_fetch("Madagascar", wait = TRUE, download_dir = paste0(getwd(), '/data'))

Make Bounding Box

bbox <- st_as_sf(st_as_sfc(st_bbox(wdpa)))

Make Hexagon Grid

for (i in c(5)) { cellarea <- i * (1e+6) cellsize <- 2 * sqrt(cellarea / ((3 * sqrt(3) / 2))) * sqrt(3) / 2 hexa <- st_make_grid(x = bbox, cellsize = cellsize, square = FALSE) st_write(hexa, paste0(getwd(), "/data/grids/hexa_", i, "km2.gpkg"), append= FALSE) }

Load Hexagons

hexa <- st_read(paste0(getwd(), "/data/grids/hexa_5km2.gpkg"))

Crop hexagons to Country

gadm <- st_transform(gadm, crs = st_crs(hexa)) intersection <- unlist(st_intersects(gadm, hexa)) hexa <- hexa[sort(intersection),]

Export cropped Hexagon Grids

write_sf(hexa, paste0(getwd(), "/data/grids/hexa_5km2_sub.gpkg"), append = FALSE)

Load cropped Hexagons

aoi <- st_read(paste0(getwd(), "/data/grids/hexa_5km2_sub.gpkg")) aoi <- st_transform(aoi, "EPSG:4326")

ncores = 12 sample = FALSE if(sample){ set.seed(123) index = sample(1:nrow(aoi), 1000, replace = FALSE) aoi = aoi[index, ] }

aoi = init_portfolio(aoi, years = 2000:2020, outdir = "./data", tmpdir = "./tmp", cores = ncores, verbose = TRUE)

Download Raster Data: Soilgrid

get_resources(aoi, resources = c("soilgrids"), layers = c("clay", "nitrogen", "phh2o", "soc"), depths = c("0-5cm", "5-15cm", "30-60cm"), stats = c("mean"))

Calculate Indicators

grid_soil <- calc_indicators(x = aoi, indicators = "soilproperties", stats_soil = c("mean", "median", "sd"), engine = "extract") grid_soil_unnested <- grid_soil %>% unnest(soilproperties) print(unique(grid_soil_unnested$value))

Thanks, can confirm this bug. It was caused by an incorrect return class of the internal functions. I am trying to merge the changes into main today.

Could you give it a try with recent development version via:

remotes::install_github("mapme-initiative/mapme.biodiversity")

Could you give it a try with recent development version via:

remotes::install_github("mapme-initiative/mapme.biodiversity")

After removing the old version and installing the newest version, another error message occurred when I was trying to run get_resources(aoi, resources = c("soilgrids"), layers = c("clay", "nitrogen", "phh2o", "soc"), depths = c("0-5cm", "5-15cm", "30-60cm"), stats = c("mean"))

The error message is called

<error/vctrs_error_scalar_type> Error in stop_vctrs(): ! Input must be a vector, not an environment.

Backtrace: 1. mapme.biodiversity::get_resources(...) 16. vctrs:::stop_scalar_type(<fn>(<env>), "") 17. vctrs:::stop_vctrs(msg, "vctrs_error_scalar_type", actual = x) <simpleWarning: Download for resource soilgrids failed. Returning unmodified portfolio object.>

The cause of this might be related to issues with your data (similar to #117). Using the same fix for the CRS I see the following:
