Dear List members,

I am trying to map the habitat suitability of Nephrops and one of my predictor 
is a categorical variable.

However when I utilised the command "as.factor" (before to create my rasters stack) I get 
the error message "Error in 1:ncol(r) : argument of length 0".

Could anyone help me?

Yes. This is a bug in package raster. So please follow the posting guide and report to the maintainer, with the 'at a minimum' information missing here (a crucial part being the version of raster).

Using 1:ncol() is bad practice (seq_len is designed for that purpose), but the raster maintainer misuses it ca 100x.


r4 <- 
raster("C:/POSTDOC/NEPHROPS_Habitat_Mapping/NEPHROPS_HabMod_PAPER1/Scotland/IN_eunis_sed.tif")
plot(r4)
is.factor(r4)
