Plots one or multiple spectral curves in the same graph to rapidly compare groups of spectra.

explorespec(
  rspecdata,
  by = 1,
  scale = c("equal", "free"),
  legpos = "topright",
  ...
)

Arguments

rspecdata

(required) a data frame, possibly of class rspec, which contains a column containing a wavelength range, named 'wl', and spectra data in remaining columns.

by

number of spectra to include in each graph (defaults to 1)

scale

defines how the y-axis should be scaled. "free": panels can vary in the range of the y-axis; "equal": all panels have the y-axis with the same range.

legpos

legend position control. Either a vector containing x and y coordinates or a single keyword from the list: "bottomright", "bottom", "bottomleft", "left", "topleft", "top", "topright", "right" and "center".

...

additional parameters to be passed to plot

Value

Spectral curve plots

Note

Number of plots presented per page depends on the number of graphs produced.
