​
Summary

Calculate the Minkowski distance from a scalar field.

​
Package Details

Calculate the Minkowski distance of a scalar field. P=1 returns Manhattan distance, P=2 returns Euclidean distance, P=10+ returns Chebyshev distance. When visualizing the distance from a point, the “unit ball” is an octahedron, sphere and cube respectively. P<1 generates a concave star-like shape.

​
