This function will tile a geometry using a specified number of hexagons.
Usage
hex_grid(object, n_tiles = 100)
Arguments
- object
An sf object or geometry to tile. It is recommended to first simplify this geometry to speed up the hexagon tiling.
- n_tiles
The number of tiles to use for representing the geometry.
Value
A vector of hexagon geometries that tile the input geometry.
Examples
library(ozmaps)
grid <- hex_grid(abs_ste, n_tiles = 75)
#> Warning: attribute variables are assumed to be spatially constant throughout all geometries
library(ggplot2)
ggplot() +
geom_sf(data = abs_ste) +
geom_sf(data = grid, fill = "steelblue", alpha = 0.2)
