How to create a transition matrix from 3 rasters using gdistance

I have a dummy raster nrows <- 4 ncols <- 7 ras <- raster(nrows = nrows, ncols = ncols) values(rast) <- 1:(nrows * ncols) And I have three rasters that represent the speed of going from a ...

Calculating accumulated walking pace from starting location outwards using R?

Goal In R, I would like to calculate an accumulated cost surface around a starting location, with the cost representing the time (say, hours) to walk from the location outwards in all directions (say,...

R - gdistance: setting to 0 the conductance values of cells corresponding to a polyline

Goal I aim at setting to 0 (i.e., not traversable) the cells of a transition matrix (storing conductance values) that correspond to a (poly)line. Where I am stuck I am having hard time to figure out ...

Cost allocation in R

Background I have been scratching my head for a while now on how to carry out cost allocation in R. I do know that there is a really useful package (namely 'gdistance') that can be used for cost ...

Tobler's hiking function: resulting walking speed in KmH or m/s?

I was reading some literature dealing with least-cost path calculation and accumulate cost-surface generation using the Tobler's hiking function. I was reading this literature since I am trying to ...

Accumulated cost surface (Tobler's hiking function) ignoring slope using R gdistance?

Background I wish to calculate in R the isochrones moving from a location outwards, implementing the Tobler's hiking function via the gdistance package (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/...
