Fix transects found on braided river sections

Usage

fix_braid_transects(
  net,
  transect_lines,
  terminal_id = NULL,
  braid_threshold = NULL,
  version = 2,
  method = "comid",
  precision = 1,
  rm_intersects = TRUE
)

Arguments

net: sf object of NHDplusv2 data
transect_lines: sf linestring dataframe, containing cross sections of flowlines in 'net' the output of "cut_cross_sections2()" function
terminal_id: character, column name containing a unique identifier, delineating seperate networks in the 'network' dataset. Default is NULL which will use 'find_connected_components()' and determine the connected components in the graph to try and create a 'component_id' column in 'network'
braid_threshold: numeric value, value of the total length of all flowlines in a braid. Only braids with total flowline lengths less than or equal to the threshold will be considered by function (i.e. determines that maximum braid size that fix_braid_transects() should operate on). Default is NULL, which will attempt to fix all the braid transects in the data
version: integer, version number of braid algorithm to use, either 1 or 2. Default is 2.
method: The method to determine the geometries to cut. Options are "comid", "component", or "neighbor". Default is "comid"
precision: int, distance in meters to approximate final cross section linestring length. Value you must be greater than 0. Default is 1
rm_intersects: logical, whether to remove transect linestrings that intersect with other parts of the network ('net'). Default is TRUE which will remove intersecting linestrings.

Value

sf object of transect linestrings
