[R] Could R help with locating coordinates in a serial manner?
Dear R community, My question is not a quick fix one but it would be helpful if you have any advice for me. I have a large data set of many locations in the US and all of these locations are expressed in coordinates (longitudes and latitudes). I need a tool which returns the state that each location is situated in. So the program should return me a vector of state names (eg. NY,CA,OH, etc). Could R help with this? Any ideas on other technologies that can be used for this? Sorry for the open ended question. Thank you. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
