NAME

       r.li.pielou  - Calculates Pielou’s diversity index on a raster map

KEYWORDS

       raster, landscape structure analysis, diversity index

SYNOPSIS

       r.li.pielou
       r.li.pielou --help
       r.li.pielou input=name config=name output=name  [--overwrite]  [--help]  [--verbose]  [--quiet]  [--ui]

   Flags:
       --overwrite
           Allow output files to overwrite existing files

       --help
           Print usage summary

       --verbose
           Verbose module output

       --quiet
           Quiet module output

       --ui
           Force launching GUI dialog

   Parameters:
       input=name [required]
           Name of input raster map

       config=name [required]
           Configuration file

       output=name [required]
           Name for output raster map

DESCRIPTION

       r.li.pielou  calculates the "Pielou’s diversity index" as:
       with:

           •   J: Pielou eveness index

           •   H’: Shannon index

           •   S: number of classes

NOTES

       Do  not  use  absolute  path names for the config and output file/map parameters.  If the "moving window"
       method was selected in g.gui.rlisetup, then the output will be a raster map, otherwise an ASCII file will
       be   generated   in   the   folder  C:\Users\userxy\AppData\Roaming\GRASS7\r.li\output\  (MS-Windows)  or
       $HOME/.grass7/r.li/output/ (GNU/Linux).

       If the input raster contains NULL value cells, r.li.pielou returns NULL for these cells.

EXAMPLES

       To calculate Pielou’s diversity index on map my_map, using my_conf configuration file (previously defined
       with g.gui.rlisetup) and saving results in my_out, run:
       r.li.pielou input=my_map conf=my_conf output=my_out

       Forest map (Spearfish sample dataset) example:
       g.region raster=landcover.30m -p
       r.mapcalc "forests = if(landcover.30m >= 41 && landcover.30m <= 43,1,null())"
       r.li.pielou input=forests conf=movwindow7 out=forests_pielou_mov7
       r.univar forests_pielou_mov7

       Forest map (North Carolina sample dataset) example:
       g.region raster=landclass96 -p
       r.mapcalc "forests = if(landclass96 == 5, 1, null() )"
       r.li.pielou input=forests conf=movwindow7 out=forests_pielou_mov7
       # verify
       r.univar forests_pielou_mov7
       r.to.vect input=forests output=forests type=area
       d.mon wx0
       d.rast forests_pielou_mov7
       d.vect forests type=boundary
