\title{Break up line objects into shorter segments}
\usage{
line_breakup(l, z)
}
\arguments{
\item{l}{An sf object with LINESTRING geometry}

\item{z}{An sf object with \code{POLYGON} geometry or a number representing the
resolution of grid cells used to break up the linestring objects}
}
\value{
An sf object with LINESTRING geometry created after breaking up the
input object.
}
\description{
This function breaks up a LINESTRING geometries into smaller pieces.
}
\examples{
library(sf)
z <- zones_sf$geometry
l <- routes_fast_sf$geometry[2]
l_split <- line_breakup(l, z)
l
l_split
sf::st_length(l)
sum(sf::st_length(l_split))
plot(z)
plot(l, add = TRUE, lwd = 9, col = "grey")
plot(l_split, add = TRUE, col = 1:length(l_split))
