Plot hex coverage (number of intersecting ellipses) for a given eccentricity.

plot_coverage(proj, eccentricity = 0.9, n_ell = 20, return_type = 1)

Arguments

proj

object of class rmapi_project.

eccentricity

eccentricity of ellipses, defined as half the distance between foci divided by the semi-major axis. We can say \(e = sqrt{1 - b^2/a^2}\), where \(e\) is the eccentricity, \(a\) is the length of the semi-major axis, and \(b\) is the length of the semi-minor axis. Eccentricity ranges between 0 (perfect circle) and 1 (straight line between foci).

n_ell

number of points that make up an ellipse.

return_type

format of return object: 1 = a gridExtra object, 2 = a list of ggplot2 objects.
