I'm using Classtat (SDMtools package) to calculate the total edge\edge density of a patch type (class) i in a restricted area (buffer) of a landscape . The problem is when I do that the buffer boundary is considered an edge. There is a way to exclude the boundary edge using R?

I also encountered the same problem a while back and we wrote a correction for this. If you are familiar with coding, feel free to take a look here: https://github.com/dbahrdt/SDMTools/tree/ignore_invalid

Otherwise, just install the correction via:

install_github('dbahrdt/SDMTools@ignore_invalid')

This should do exactly what you asked for, exclude the buffer-border from calculation of edge-density.
