Details

The function retrieves BD Foret V2 vegetation areas within a 1000 m convex buffer around x. Each polygon is classified into a standardized vegetation type based on its original nature attribute.

TYPE: Vegetation type code derived from BDTOPO nature values: - FEV: Deciduous forest - REV: Coniferous forest - FRV: Coniferous and deciduous forest - PEV: Poplar plantation - LAV: Woody heath

Vegetation points are generated by spatial sampling using a hexagonal pattern, with one point per 4 hectares of vegetation area.

If no vegetation areas are found, the function returns an empty standardized sf object of type POINT.
