shorten_olc {olctools} | R Documentation |
One of the things that makes OLCs useful is that they can shortened - you can trim
characters off them, saving space without substantially compromising the accuracy. shorten_olc
takes full-length OLCs (generated with encode_olc
or any other way) and shortens them.
shorten_olc(olcs, lats, longs)
olcs |
a vector of open location codes, generated with |
lats |
a numeric vector of latitudes. |
longs |
a numeric vector of longitudes, equivalent in size to |
encode_olc
to create full Open Location Codes.
