Gracias Beatriz, efectivamente, lo que indicas en tu ejemplo es lo que obtengo al final de mi proceso. En todo caso pruebo tu opción con mis datos, si es como imagino seguro que es más rápida de montar y más elegante que tratar el resultado de un sink() (recuerdo que en su momento lo intenté con fotify pero no supe bien como atacarlo, no conocía el enlace que me mandas, por tanto lo pruebo de

Oscar, al final no he podido esperar hasta mañana Con: library(maptools)library(sp) poligonos <- readShapeLines("C:\\...\\DATOS\\MUNICIPIO.shp") sink("C:\\ ... \\DATOS\\MUNICIPIO.csv") coordinates(poligonos) Consigo un fichero con la suficiente estructura para tratarlo fácilmente y de una tacada montar la tabla .csv tal y como he indicado en un correo anterior Necesito el

Hi, I meet a strange trouble writing shapefiles with write.pointShape() from maptools. > write.pointShape(mylines[,5:9], file="Sxtplinshp", mycoordspt) Error in write.pointShape(mylines[, 5:9], file = "Sxtplinshp", mycoordspt) : shapefile names must conform to the 8.3 format It seems that the function request a special shapefile name spelling (conformed to 8.3

Hello, I'm having problems reading a shapefile with read.shape (maptools). I'm absolutely sure my file is there, but I get "no such file". The wd is ok, since read.table for example does find the file. > getwd() [1] "D:/somedirectory/R scripts" > read.table("cities.shp") Error in read.table("cities.shp") : empty beginning of file In addition:

Hi List, I am trying to read a large shapefile (~37,000 polys) using read.shape [winxp, 1gig ram, dellbox). I receive the following error: AppName: rgui.exe AppVer: 1.90.30412.0 ModName: maptools.dll ModVer: 1.90.30412.0 Offset: 0000309d The getinfo.shape returns info, and the shapefile is readable in arcmap. Any ideas on how to overcome this? Thanks Herry

I have a simple problem: I need to load a ERSI shapefile of US states and check whether or not a set of points are within the boundary of these states. I have the shapefile, I have the coordinates but I'm having a great deal of difficulty bringing the two together. The problem is the various GIS packages for R do not play well with each other. sp, shapefiles, maptools, etc all use different

I'm not sure if this is what you want. But the function coordinates() in sp package gives you the coordinates of SpatialObjects. Regards.

Hello R Community, I have imported a dataset which contain X Y coordinates and would like to recreate a shape file after some data analysis. What i have done is to import some taxlot data and join them based on some criteria. I want to check to see how well the joining went by reviewing the results in GIS. A couple things. I cant seem to import a shape file correctly using the maptools

Hola buenos días: Hace algún tiempo mandé una duda que sobre fichero tipo shapefile que publica el Instituto Geográfico Nacional de España y que detallo en el word Duda_sobre_shp. El tema es que al final no obtuve respuesta (es cierto que lo mandé en Agosto y en esa fechas entiendo que sea normal, por tanto por recomendación de un conocido vuelvo de nuevo a remitir la cuestión) Como no podía

A few years back, I wrote some code to plot maps with the maptools package. Now I am trying to reproduce my results, only to find out that maptools has been updated and my code no longer works. I've been able to fix the first part of it by forcing spb <- maptools:::read.shape("/home/sasha/Documents/maps/spb.shp") (as read.shape has been deprecated) but now when I do plot(spb,

Dear Roger, I am trying to use the write.polylistShape() function of maptools for the first time and realize that it handles list of polygons of class 'polylist'. However, it seems that no as.polylist() function exist in the package. The question behind that is: in your opinion, which would be the best way to convert a list of matrix of polygon nodes coordinates into an object of

Hi, I have a problem that concerns combination of the package Maptools and Splancs I have 2 shapefiles that i want to manipulate (one of type point and one polygon).I import them in R using Maptools but then i can't estimate a quartic Kernel using Splancs. The package doesn't recognize the shapes (invalid points and poly argument).I don't know if this is an easy task but i have

Greetings! I am trying plot some data on a map in R. Here's the scenario.

In R's maptools package, is there a built-in function to test if a given point is "inside" a given polygon on the map? The map was loaded from an ESRI Shapefile. The point's latitude and longitude are known. Thank you! Aleks -- ------------------------ Aleksandr Andreev Fulbright Fellow Graduate School of Management St Petersburg State University

Hi, I was plotting or creating a map for Texas school districts using the shape file of Texas.

But read.shape is there in maptools. If anyone can help me out it will be great. Thanks in advance. Shant
