Dear all; I have a dataframe with several columns. The columns are the elevation, volume and the area of the cells (which were placed inside a polygon). I have extracted them from DEM raster to calculate the volume under polygon and the elevation for a specific volume of the reservoir.
> head(x6,2) Elevation Vol Area V_sum A_sum 1 2145 13990.38 85.83053 13990.38 85.83053 2 2147 43129.18 267.88312 57119.56 353.71365 > tail(x6,2) Elevation Vol Area V_sum A_sum 158 2307 233.0276 233.02756 1771806968 15172603 159 2308 0.0000 71.65642 1771806968 15172674 I used a linear model to estimate the elevation for a specific volume, but the codes do not work properly. lm1 = lm(x6[,1]~x6[,4]) new_volume <- 3,000,000,000 pred_elev <- predict(lm1, newdata = data.frame(volume = new_volume)) pred_elev The results just estimated for the 159 rows of the dataframe, not the new volume. > tail(pred_elev) 154 155 156 157 158 159 2254.296 2254.296 2254.296 2254.296 2254.296 2254.296 Also I have used the approx function, but it does not work for the new volume, too. > a = x6[,1] > b = x6[,4] > estimate <- 3,000,000,000 > appro <- approx(b,a, xout = estimate) > appro $x [1] 3e+09 $y [1] NA I do not know why it has happened. Is there any way to do this? Or maybe there is another way to do that. I would be more than happy if anyone help me.
