Description

Calculates perpendicular distances of a point process contained within a strip to the center line of the strip they are contained in. It also computes the positions of the objects projected onto the line. This is the inverse of the offset.points function.

Usage

dist2line(object.ppp, line.ends)

Arguments

object.ppp point process for observations in a strip
line.ends ends of line x0,y0,x1,y1
