Plot the Minimum Convex Polygon

Description

This function plots the MCP as a polygon, which covers the geographical extent of a set of points on a Cartesian plane.

Usage

plot_mcp(plotnew=TRUE, plotpoints=TRUE, points.col='black', points.pch=1, titletxt="Title", xaxis= "Easting (m)", yaxis="Northing (m)", mcp.col='black', mcp.lwd=2, fill.col=NA, jpeg=FALSE, ...)

Arguments

plotnew Boolean: Set to TRUE to create a new plot. Set to FALSE to overlay current plot.
plotpoints Boolean: Set to TRUE if the point observations are to be plotted
points.col Specify a colour for the point observations
points.pch Specify a plotting symbol for the point observations
titletxt A string to use as the title on the plot
xaxis A string to label the x-axis of the plot
yaxis A string to label the y-axis of the plot
mcp.col Specify the line colour for the MCP
mcp.lwd Specify the line width for the MCP
fill.col Specify a fill colour for the MCP
jpeg Boolean: Set to TRUE if the plot should be saved in JPEG format
... Arguments to be passed to graphical parameters
