\title{
Diameter and Bounding Radius of a Linear Network
}
\description{
Compute the diameter or bounding radius of a linear network
measured using the shortest path distance.
}
\usage{
\method{diameter}{linnet}(x)
\method{boundingradius}{linnet}(x, \dots)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{
Linear network (object of class \code{"linnet"}).
}
\item{\dots}{Ignored.}
}
\details{
The diameter of a linear network (in the shortest path distance)
is the maximum value of the shortest-path distance between any
two points \eqn{u} and \eqn{v} on the network.
The bounding radius of a linear network (in the shortest path distance)
is the minimum value, over all points \eqn{u} on the network,
of the maximum shortest-path distance from \eqn{u} to another point
\eqn{v} on the network.
The functions \code{\link[spatstat.geom]{boundingradius}} and
\code{\link[spatstat.geom]{diameter}} are generic;
the functions \code{boundingradius.linnet} and \code{diameter.linnet}
are the methods for objects of class \code{linnet}.
}
\value{
A single numeric value.
