Examples

augusta_nlcd <- terra::rast(landscapemetrics::augusta_nlcd)
check_landscape(augusta_nlcd)
#>   layer       crs units   class n_classes OK
#> 1     1 projected     m integer        15  ✔
podlasie_ccilc <- terra::rast(landscapemetrics::podlasie_ccilc)
check_landscape(podlasie_ccilc)
#> Warning: Caution: Coordinate reference system not metric - Units of results based on cellsizes and/or distances may be incorrect.
#>   layer        crs   units   class n_classes OK
#> 1     1 geographic degrees integer        14  ✖
landscape <- terra::rast(landscapemetrics::landscape)
