QGIS algorithm - Create random raster layer (poisson distribution)

Source: R/qgis_createrandompoissonrasterlayer.R

QGIS Algorithm provided by QGIS (native c++) Create random raster layer (poisson distribution) (native:createrandompoissonrasterlayer). Generates a raster layer for given extent and cell size filled with poisson distributed random values. By default, the values will be chosen given a mean of 1.0. This can be overridden by using the advanced parameter for mean value. The raster data type is set to Integer types (Integer16 by default). The poisson distribution random values are positive integer numbers. A floating point raster will represent a cast of integer values to floating point.

Arguments

EXTENT

extent - Desired extent. A comma delimited string of x min, x max, y min, y max. E.g. '4,10,101,105'. Path to a layer. The extent of the layer is used..

TARGET_CRS

crs - Target CRS. CRS as an auth ID (e.g. 'EPSG:3111'). CRS as a PROJ4 string (e.g. 'PROJ4:…'). CRS as a WKT string (e.g. 'WKT:…'). Path to a layer. The CRS of the layer is used..

PIXEL_SIZE

number - Pixel size. A numeric value. field:FIELD_NAME to use a data defined value taken from the FIELD_NAME field. expression:SOME EXPRESSION to use a data defined value calculated using a custom QGIS expression.

OUTPUT_TYPE

enum of ("Integer16", "Unsigned Integer16", "Integer32", "Unsigned Integer32", "Float32", "Float64") - Output raster data type. Number of selected option, e.g. '1'. Comma separated list of options, e.g. '1,3'.

MEAN

number - Mean. A numeric value. field:FIELD_NAME to use a data defined value taken from the FIELD_NAME field. expression:SOME EXPRESSION to use a data defined value calculated using a custom QGIS expression.

CREATE_OPTIONS

string - Creation options. String value. field:FIELD_NAME to use a data defined value taken from the FIELD_NAME field. expression:SOME EXPRESSION to use a data defined value calculated using a custom QGIS expression.

OUTPUT

rasterDestination - Output raster. Path for new raster layer.

further parameters passed to qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm()

.complete_output

logical specifying if complete out of qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm() should be used (TRUE) or first output (most likely the main) should read (FALSE). Default value is TRUE.

.quiet

logical specifying if parameter .quiet for qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm() Default value is TRUE.

.messages

logical specifying if messages from qgisprocess::qgis_run_algorithm() should be printed (TRUE) or not (FALSE). Default value is FALSE.
