R: Create tagged spectrum from wavebands

wb2rect_spct {photobiology} | R Documentation

## Create tagged spectrum from wavebands

### Description

Create a generic_spct object with wavelengths from the range of wavebands in a list. The spectrum is suitable for plotting labels, symbols, rectangles or similar, as the midpoint of each waveband is added to the spectrum.

### Usage

    wb2rect_spct(w.band, short.names = TRUE)

### Arguments

`w.band` | waveband or list of waveband objects The waveband(s) determine the wavelengths in variable `w.length` of the returned spectrum
`short.names` | logical Flag indicating whether to use short or long names for wavebands

### Value

A `generic.spectrum` object, with columns w.length, wl.low, wl.hi, wl.color, wb.color and wb.name. The w.length values are the midpoint of the wavebands, wl.low and wl.high give the boundaries of the wavebands, wl.color the color definition corresponding to the wavelength at the center of the waveband and wb.color the color of the waveband as a whole (assuming a flat energy irradiance spectrum). Different spectral data variables are set to zero and added making the returned value compatible with classes derived from `generic_spct`.
