r.li.shape(1grass)          GRASS GIS User's Manual         r.li.shape(1grass)

NAME
       r.li.shape  - Calculates shape index on a raster map

KEYWORDS
       raster, landscape structure analysis, patch index

SYNOPSIS
       r.li.shape
       r.li.shape --help
       r.li.shape  input=name config=name output=name  [--overwrite]  [--help]
       [--verbose]  [--quiet]  [--ui]

   Flags:
       --overwrite
           Allow output files to overwrite existing files

       --help
           Print usage summary

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

       --ui
           Force launching GUI dialog

   Parameters:
       input=name [required]
           Name of input raster map

       config=name [required]
           Configuration file

       output=name [required]
           Name for output raster map

DESCRIPTION
       r.li.shape calculates the landscape shape index as:
       LSI = 0.25 * E / sqrt(A)
       with:

           •   E: sum of all edges

           •   A: sum of all patch areas

NOTES
       Do not use absolute path names for the config and output  file/map  pa-
       rameters.    If   the   "moving   window"   method   was   selected  in
       g.gui.rlisetup, then the output will be  a  raster  map,  otherwise  an
       ASCII  file  will  be  generated  in  the  folder  C:\Users\userxy\App-
       Data\Roaming\GRASS7\r.li\output\            (MS-Windows)             or
       $HOME/.grass7/r.li/output/ (GNU/Linux).

       If  the  input raster map contains only NULL values then r.li.shape re-
       turns NULL.

EXAMPLES
       To calculate the shape index on map my_map, using my_conf configuration
       file  (previously  defined  with  g.gui.rlisetup) and saving results in
       my_out, run:
       r.li.shape input=my_map conf=my_conf output=my_out

       Forest map (Spearfish sample dataset) example:
       g.region raster=landcover.30m -p
       r.mapcalc "forests = if(landcover.30m >= 41 && landcover.30m <= 43,1,null())"
       r.li.shape input=forests conf=movwindow7 out=forests_shape_mov7
       r.univar forests_shape_mov7

       Forest map (North Carolina sample dataset) example:
       g.region raster=landclass96 -p
       r.mapcalc "forests = if(landclass96 == 5, 1, null() )"
       r.li.shape input=forests conf=movwindow7 out=forests_shape_mov7
       # verify
       r.univar forests_shape_mov7
       r.to.vect input=forests output=forests type=area
       d.mon wx0
       d.rast forests_shape_mov7
       d.vect forests type=boundary
