Arguments

x	An R object. See S3 methods for supported classes.
img	An image to geotag. It can be a local file or a URL, for example "https://i.imgur.com/6yHmlwT.jpeg". Accepted file extensions are png, jpg, jpeg, tif and tiff.
halign	A number between 0 and 1 giving the horizontal alignment of img relative to x. 0 aligns img with the left edge of x, 1 aligns it with the right edge and 0.5 centers it horizontally.
valign	A number between 0 and 1 giving the vertical alignment of img relative to x. 0 aligns img with the bottom edge of x, 1 aligns it with the top edge and 0.5 centers it vertically.
expand	An expansion factor of the bounding box of x. 0 means that no expansion is added, 1 means that the bounding box is expanded to double the original size. See Details.
crop	Logical. Should the raster be cropped to the (expanded) bounding box of x? See Details.
...	Further arguments passed to methods.
mask	Logical, for vector methods. Should the raster be masked to the shape of x? See Details.
inverse	Logical. Only used when mask = TRUE. If TRUE, areas of the raster covered by x are masked.
crs	Character string describing a CRS. This parameter only applies when x is a SpatExtent, sfg, bbox or a numeric coordinate vector. See the CRS section.

Details

vignette("rasterpic", package = "rasterpic") explains the effect of parameters halign, valign, expand, crop and mask with examples.

S3 methods

rasterpic supports these spatial input classes:

• sf classes: sf, sfc, sfg and bbox.

• terra classes: SpatRaster, SpatVector and SpatExtent.

• stars class: stars.

• A numeric coordinate vector of the form c(xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax).

Other packages can provide methods for additional spatial classes.

Methods for extent-like inputs use the object extent. Methods for vector inputs can also mask the image to the object shape.

CRS

This function preserves the CRS of x when applicable. For optimal results, do not use geographic coordinates (longitude/latitude).

crs can be in WKT format, as an "authority:number" code such as "EPSG:4326" or as a PROJ-string such as "+proj=utm +zone=12". It can also be retrieved with:

• sf::st_crs(25830)$wkt.

• terra::crs().

• tidyterra::pull_crs().

See the Value and Notes sections in terra::crs().

Value

A SpatRaster object (see terra::rast()) where each layer corresponds to a color channel of img:

• If img has at least 3 layers, the result records layers 1 to 3 as the red, green and blue channels with names "r", "g" and "b" and alpha if applicable.

• If img already has an RGB specification (this may be the case for tif/tiff files), the result keeps that specification.

The resulting SpatRaster will have an RGB specification as explained in terra::RGB().

vignette("rasterpic", package = "rasterpic") for examples.

From sf:

• sf::st_crs().

• sf::st_bbox().

• vignette("sf1", package = "sf") to understand how sf organizes R objects.

From stars:

• stars::st_as_stars().

From terra:

• terra::vect(), terra::rast() and terra::ext().

• terra::mask().

• terra::crs().

• terra::RGB().

For plotting:

• terra::plot() and terra::plotRGB().

• tidyterra::autoplot.SpatRaster() and tidyterra::geom_spatraster_rgb() with ggplot2.

• tmap, mapsf and maptiles.
