Create a segmented road network — segmented

This function creates a segmented road network by dividing each link of the input road network into segments of a specified length.

Usage

create_segmented_network(road_network, segment_length = 1, events = NULL, ...)

# S3 method for class 'road_network'
create_segmented_network(road_network, segment_length = 1, events = NULL, ...)

Arguments

road_network: A road_network object representing the input road network.
segment_length: A numeric value specifying the length of each segment.
events: A sf object representing events.
...: Additional arguments passed to or from other methods.

Value

A segmented_network object.

Examples

# Create a road network
road_network <- create_road_network(sample_roads)
#> Warning: CRS is missing. Returning the input object without transformation.

# Create a segmented road network
segmented_network <- create_segmented_network(
  road_network,
  segment_length = 0.5
)
