In 1992
Baker and Cai described a Raster Landscape Ecological spatial analysis package
(RLE).
This program
operates within GRASS GIS and can be used to calculate over 60 measures of landscape
structure. These include calculations of distance, shape, fractal dimension,
perimeters, diversity, texture, juxtaposition, and edges.
It has multi-scale analysis capabilities, allows moving window analyses and is specifically designed for patch data.
