Hi R helpers, I tried to convert a list of LatLong coordinates (in DD format) into UTM zone 11 NAD 27. I first tried this from PBSmapping: library(PBSmapping) LatLong<-cbind(c(56.85359, 56.85478),c(-118.4109, -118.4035)) colnames(LatLong)<-c("X","Y") attr(LatLong, "projection") <- "UTM" attr(LatLong, "zone") <- 11

I''ve recently been looking at Mapstraction as a way to make it easier for me to support more than one mapping service, mainly Google Maps and Microsoft''s Virtual Earth. However, I seem to be running into a lot of errors when trying to use Mapstraction with IE7 and Virtual Earth. As an example, I get a "Not Implemented" error when I load the many of the demos. This

Hi, my mapstraction onclick event handlers always yielded javascript errors in Virtual Earth maps ("e.view is undefined"). I''m using version 6 of mapcontrol.ashx. After consulting Virtual Earth documentation, I came up with a solution. Here is my patch (based on rev 212) > var that = this; 360c361,368 < me.clickHandler(e.view.LatLong.Latitude,

Dear R-helpers, I know how to use unique to select unique rows, e.g. unique.rows<-unique(dataframe) but I would like to select those rows that are unique only only TWO of my dataframe's columns (so, two rows with the same value on these two columns would not be kept, even if they had different values in other columns). For example, I have a dataframe with 10 columns, two of which are

Hi there: I am a total beginner in R, and I have a simple question: I have a table with thousands of lines that represent locations, and two columns: latitude and longitude. I need to randomly sample 1000 lines. How do I do it? I know the command "sample", but it samples elements independently, not lines. If there is a better place for me to ask that type of question, please let me
