Fragmentation (Standard)
- Author: O.Conrad (c) 2008
- Menu: Grid | Analysis | Fragmentation Analysis
Description
Grid based fragmentation analysis after Riitters et al. (2000).
(1) interior, if Density = 1.0
(2) undetermined, if Density > 0.6 and Density = Connectivity
(3) perforated, if Density > 0.6 and Density - Connectivity > 0
(4) edge, if Density > 0.6 and Density - Connectivity < 0
(5) transitional, if 0.4 < Density < 0.6
(6) patch, if Density < 0.4
