Add binary decisions

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.

add_binary_decisions(x)

Arguments

x

problem() (i.e., ConservationProblem) object.

Value

Object (i.e., ConservationProblem) 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 ConservationProblem object. Note that if multiple decisions are added to a problem object, then the last one to be added will be used.

Other decisions: add_default_decisions(), add_proportion_decisions(), add_semicontinuous_decisions()
