Function: rookWeights()
rookWeights(
geometries,useCentroids?,precisionThreshold?,orderOfContiguity?,includeLowerOrder?):Promise<WeightsMeta>
Defined in: core/src/weights/contiguity-neighbors.ts:256
Description
Create Rook contiguity weights for GeoJSON features.
Rook contiguity defines neighbors as spatial units that only share common edge (border)
This is in contrast to Queen contiguity, which considers shared edges and vertices.
Parameters
geometries
The geometries used to create the rook contiguity weights. See SpatialGeometry for more information.
useCentroids?
boolean = false
If true, uses geometry centroids for calculations
precisionThreshold?
number = 0.0
Distance threshold for determining neighbors. Useful when geometries don't perfectly align
orderOfContiguity?
number = 1
Number of steps to consider for neighbor relationships. 1 means immediate neighbors only
includeLowerOrder?
boolean = false
If true, includes all neighbors from order 1 up to the specified order
Returns
Promise<WeightsMeta>
Spatial weights metadata including neighbor relationships
