Graph Types in SpatialGraphs.jl

At this time, only raster-based graph types have been developed (and vertex locations are stored in a Rasters.Raster), but there are plans to eventually implement graph types for vector data as well.

Abstract Types

The overarching type in SpatialGraphs.jl is the AbstractSpatialGraph. All AbstractSpatialGraph subtypes contain a field called graph, which is itself an AbstractGraph.

AbstractSpatialGraph{T}

The AbstractRasterGraph type is a subtype of AbstractSpatialGraph. All AbstractRasterGraph subtypes contain a field called vertex_raster, which is a Rasters.Raster that describes the spatial locations for the vertices in the graph. If your graph has 10 vertices, then the corresponding vertex_raster must have 10 unique values, starting at 1 (which corresponds to the first vertex in the graph) and going up to 10 (which corresponds to the tenth vertex in the graph). To find the location of a given graph vertex, n, you simply identify the pixel(s) with a value of n. For pixels/elements in vertex_raster for which there shouldn't be a graph vertex, use a value of 0.

AbstractRasterGraph Subtypes

SpatialGraphs.jl has raster graph types for undirected, directed, unweighted, and weighted graphs, each detailed below.
