Overview

About

Maintained by Rodrigo Augusto Santinelo PereiraFirst published 2025-10-011 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Provides functions and example datasets for phytosociological analysis, forest inventory, biomass and carbon estimation, and visualization of vegetation data. Includes functions to compute structural parameters [phytoparam(), summary.param(), stats()], estimate above-ground biomass and carbon [AGB()], stratify wood volume by diameter at breast height (DBH) classes [stratvol()], generate collector and rarefaction curves [collector.curve(), rarefaction()], and visualize basal areas on quadrat maps [BAplot(), including rectangular plots and individual coordinates]. Several example datasets are provided to demonstrate the functionality of these tools. For more details see FAO (1981, ISBN:92-5-101132-X) "Manual of forest inventory", IBGE (2012, ISBN:9788524042720) "Manual técnico da vegetação brasileira" and Heringer et al. (2020) "Phytosociology in R: A routine to estimate phytosociological parameters" doi:10.22533/at.ed.3552009033.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)

install.packages("PhytoIn", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("PhytoIn/PhytoIn")

Development version from PhytoIn/PhytoIn. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-phytoin

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-PhytoIn

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager
