I have a vector of land cover class data from a GIS: > landcov[1:10,2] #the first ten examples of a large (100k+) object 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 12 12 01 12 01 15 15 15 15 15
etc. I also have a lookup table for the class data that gives the cover type as a string: > cnd.names #the look up table, i.e., landcov[3,2] == 1 == "Montane Meadow" CndVal Cnddbname 1 1 Montane Meadow 2 2 Sierran Mixed Coniferous Forest 3 3 Mixed Montane Chaparral 4 4 Jeffrey Pine-Fir Forest 5 5 Sierran White Fir Forest etc. How can I create an object that has the string as its value? I.e., foo[3] <- "Montane Meadow" I tried using apply and a custom function but couldn't get it to work. I feel like this is trivial but am stuck fast.
