This function reads in the input files of an antares study the current areas layout, ie. the position of the areas It may be useful for plotting the network.

Be aware that the layout is read in the input files so they may have changed since a simulation has been run.

readLayout(opts = simOptions(), xyCompare = c("union", "intersect"))

Arguments

opts

list of simulation parameters returned by the function setSimulationPath

xyCompare

Use when passing multiple opts, can be "union" or "intersect".

Value

A list with three elements:

areas:

A data.frame containing the name, the color and the coordinate of each area

district:

A data.frame containing the name, the color and the coordinate of each district

links:

A data.frame containing the name, the coordinates of the origin and the destination of each link

By default, readLayout reads the layout for the current default antares study. It is possible to specify another study with the parameter opts. And we can pass multiple studies using a list of opts.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
readLayout()

# By default, the function reads layout for the default study,
# but it is possible to specify another study with parameter "opts"
sim1 <- setSimulationPath()

#[... code that modifies the default antares study]

readLayout(sim1)

} # }
