They can be created from RasterLayer objects, or from file names. These two functions allow you to save the references to raster files and recreate a rasterStack object later. They only work if the RasterStack points to layers that have their values on disk. The values are not saved, only the references to the files. </p> <h3>Usage</h3> <pre> stackOpen(stackfile) stackSave(x, filename) </pre> <h3>Arguments</h3> <table summary="R argblock"> <tr valign="top"><td><code>stackfile</code></td> <td> <p> Filename for the RasterStack (to save it on disk) </p> </td></tr> <tr valign="top"><td><code>x</code></td> <td> <p> RasterStack object </p> </td></tr> <tr valign="top"><td><code>filename</code></td> <td> <p>File name </p> </td></tr> </table> <h3>Details</h3> <p>When a RasterStack is saved to a file, only pointers (filenames) to raster datasets are saved, not the data. If the name or location of a raster file changes, the RasterStack becomes invalid. </p> <h3>Value</h3> <p>RasterStack object </p> <h3>See Also</h3> <p><code><a href="writeRaster.html">writeRaster</a></code>, <code><a href="stack.html">stack</a></code>, <code><a href="addLayer.html">addLayer</a></code></p> <h3>Examples</h3> <pre> file <- system.file("external/test.grd", package="raster") s <- stack(c(file, file)) ## Not run: s <- stackSave(s, "mystack") # note that filename adds an extension .stk to a stackfile s2 <- stackOpen("mystack.stk") s2 ## End(Not run) </pre> <hr /><div style="text-align: center;">[Package <em>raster</em> version 3.3-13 <a href="00Index.html">Index</a>]</div> </body></html>
