Histogram — hist

Create a histogram of the values of a SpatRaster. For large datasets a sample of maxcell is used.

Usage

# S4 method for class 'SpatRaster'
hist(x, layer, maxcell=1000000, plot=TRUE, maxnl=16, main, ...)

x: SpatRaster
layer: positive integer or character to indicate layer numbers (or names). If missing, all layers up to maxnl are used
maxcell: integer. To regularly sample very large objects
plot: logical. Plot the histogram or only return the histogram values
maxnl: positive integer. The maximum number of layers to use. Ignored if layer is not missing
main: character. Main title(s) for the plot. Default is the value of names
...: additional arguments. See hist

This function is principally used for plotting a histogram, but it also returns an object of class "histogram" (invisibly if plot=TRUE).
