Hi, I have relased a new package that can be helpful to the GIS users: RArcInfo. This package allows the user to import data from Arc/Info V7.x binary coverage. There are functions to import data from the basic files: ARC, PAL, BND, etc. and also from those that store tables. Besides, there are also two functions to plot arcs and polygons. The package will only work on Linux, but soon I will make it to work on Windows. Please, notice that the package is in an early stage and I need some feedback from the users to improve it. I have some ideas, but many more will be welcome.
