As I understand this, the 54 zeroes represent identical coordinates.
The positive numbers represent the distance in meters between points
that have been grouped together at a certain level of the tree. Now, I
am not interested in grouping together points with distances larger
than 100 meters, so I would like to stop the clustering process at
that point - or, after the hclust has completed, extract the clusters
that were in effect at that level. In the above example that would be
at level 65.
I didn't understand from the documentation of hclust how to accomplish
that, can someone on the list help me?
The goal is to count, for each cluster, the number of fires and then
to analyse how the fires within each cluster is distributed over time,
and to count how many of them that are too close in time to be
considered independent.
