Generates a pseudo-visium grid of spots across a provided spatial extent

Usage

makePseudoVisium(extent = NULL, micron_size = 1, name = "pseudo_visium")

Arguments

extent

SpatExtent or anything else a SpatExtent can be extracted or created from

micron_size

size of a micrometer relative to spatial coordinates

name

character. (default is 'pseudo_visium') Name of giottoPolygon object to create

Value

A giottoPolygon for the pseudo-visium spots.

Details

This function generates a pseudo-Visium grid of spots based on the input spatial locations. The micron_size param is used to determine the size of the spots

Examples

e <- ext(0, 2000, 0, 2000)
x <- makePseudoVisium(extent = e, micron_size = 1)
#> 390 polygons generated
plot(x)
