Summary plots of leading vegetation types

Source: R/plotting.R

Create raster of leading vegetation types and Plot a bar chart summary and a vegetation type map. NOTE: plot order will follow colors order.

Arguments

speciesStack

A RasterStack of percent-cover-by-species layers.
vtm

An optional vegetation type map (RasterLayer). If not supplied, will be produced internally by makeVegTypeMap.
vegLeadingProportion

The minimum proportion cover required to consider a species to be the "leading" one. Default 0.8.
sppEquiv

table with species name equivalencies between the kNN and final naming formats. See data("sppEquivalencies_CA", "LandR"). Only necessary if mixedType == 2. If not provided and mixedType == 2, will attempt to use data("sppEquivalencies_CA", "LandR").
sppEquivCol

the column name to use from sppEquiv. Only necessary if mixedType == 2. If not provided and mixedType == 2, will attempt to use "Boreal".
colors

Named vector of colour codes, named using species names. NOTE: plot order will follow this order.
title

The title to use for the generated plots.
