scale function

Scale values

Scale values

Center and/or scale raster data. For details see scale

## S4 method for signature 'SpatRaster' scale(x, center=TRUE, scale=TRUE)

Arguments

  • x: SpatRaster
  • center: logical or numeric. If TRUE, centering is done by subtracting the layer means (omitting NAs), and if FALSE, no centering is done. If center is a numeric vector (recycled to nlyr(x)), then each layer of x has the corresponding value from center subtracted from it.
  • scale: logical or numeric. If TRUE, scaling is done by dividing the (centered) layers of x by their standard deviations if center is TRUE, and the root mean square otherwise. If scale is FALSE, no scaling is done. If scale is a numeric vector (recycled to nlyr(x)), each layer of x is divided by the corresponding value. Scaling is done after centering.

Returns

SpatRaster

r <- rast(system.file("ex/logo.tif", package="terra")) s <- scale(r) ## the equivalent, computed in steps m <- global(r, "mean") rr <- r - m[,1] rms <- global(rr, "rms") ss <- rr / rms[,1]
