Format
An object of class MultiLandMetrics

Details
The main internal object is a data.frame (accesible through ed_metrics@data
) with information
about the values of two landscape metrics: "pland" (percentage of landscape) and "ed" (edge density).
The object was created from the MultiLand object named "ernesdesign", which received two raster layers from a small portion of the ecoregion "El Chaco" as main inputs. The main rasterlayer was provided by the project "MapBiomas Chaco" for the year 2000. The extra rasterlayer contained the NDVI values of cells within the same extent of the main rasterlayer, and was provided by Landsat.
