Add binary decisions

Source: R/add_binary_decisions.R
add_binary_decisions.Rd

Add a binary decision to a conservation planning problem. This is the classic decision of either prioritizing or not prioritizing a planning unit. Typically, this decision has the assumed action of buying the planning unit to include in a protected area network. If no decision is added to a problem then this decision class will be used by default.

Usage

add_binary_decisions(x)

Arguments

x

problem() object.

Value

An updated problem() object with the decisions added to it.

Details

Conservation planning problems involve making decisions on planning units. These decisions are then associated with actions (e.g., turning a planning unit into a protected area). Only a single decision should be added to a problem() object. Note that if multiple decisions are added to an object, then the last one to be added will be used.

See also

See decisions for an overview of all functions for adding decisions.

Other decisions: add_proportion_decisions(), add_semicontinuous_decisions()
