Overview

About

Maintained by Michael D. SumnerFirst published 2016-06-128 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Create surface forms from matrix or 'raster' data for flexible plotting and conversion to other mesh types. The functions 'quadmesh' or 'triangmesh' produce a continuous surface as a 'mesh3d' object as used by the 'rgl' package. This is used for plotting raster data in 3D (optionally with texture), and allows the application of a map projection without data loss and many processing applications that are restricted by inflexible regular grid rasters. There are discrete forms of these continuous surfaces available with 'dquadmesh' and 'dtriangmesh' functions.

Install

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

install.packages("quadmesh", 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("hypertidy/quadmesh")

Development version from hypertidy/quadmesh. 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-quadmesh

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-quadmesh

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

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