Check if gdal_calc.py Python script is available.

Usage

is_gdal_calc_available()

Value

A logical value indicating if it is available.

Details

The gdal_calc.py Python script is used to process Area of Habitat data when using the GDAL engine (within create_spp_aoh_data()) . This function determines if this script is available on the system. On Windows systems, it first tries to access this script using the OSGeo4W software (available at https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/). If that fails, or if you are not using a Windows system: it then tries to access this script using default system variables.

Examples

# see if gdal_calc python script is available
print(is_gdal_calc_available())
#> [1] TRUE
