Dear R user, I am running R under Windows 2000. I am looking for a routine for importing - shape files (ESRI) into R - dbase files (FOXPRO) into R and I am looking for time-space models for description and prediction of Bernoulli-, Binomial- and Poissonvaraibles. Thank's a lot for a reply. Sincerely yours, Ekkehardt Altpeter Swiss Federal Office of Public

I am trying to build a R 1.7 package under Windows NT. I created the DESCRIPTION file, the RD file and added the code to the R folder. I also downloaded and installed the Rtools package and have Perl 5.0. I know that Perl, Miktex, and gcc are working. I also have my PATH variable set correctly. I can fake install my package by removing the *.R from the code file, using Rcmd Rdconv to create

The main limitation of the shapefiles package that I put together is that it does not create shapefiles from R objects - rather it only writes shapefiles that have been read into R and manipulated within the constraints of the existing file structure. By this I mean that for example you can change the coordinates of points and write them back out. Or you can add a bunch of blank columns in the

Hi all, who knows how to get an ESRI Shapefile for the NUTS-2 Regions of the enlarged European Union? Particularly I want to draw maps of Germany, Poland, Czech Republik, Hungary and Austria. I've found Shapefiles for the US, Russia and other countries elsewhere in the web, but for Europe it seems really difficult. With many thanks for any hint Albrecht

Does Mapstraction support ESRI (arcwebservices.com)? Thanks, - Michael

Sorry, I did not make my question clear. Since I have a point theme with many points, some of them may clump together. the problems here are: 1. how to find clumps in a point theme? 2. the convex-hull extension I found only deal with all the points in a theme at each time? how to make each convex hull around each point clump automatically? Thanks. Xiaohua On 5/12/06, Bob Booth <bbooth

Hello- Does anyone know if R can read in ESRI file geodatabase feature classes, directly from the file geodatabase? I currently have to export the data out of Arc, to a csv file, then read the csv file. I'd like to bypass this step and read directly from the file geodatabase. Thanks for your help. -al

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

Did not hear from anyone on this, so maybe we are the only ESRI users who got bit, but this turned out to be an issue with oplocks. Disabling oplocks on the server eliminated the problem.

cheers , I need help in shapefile manipulations. I have two shapefiles of my country Cameroon. The first contain 10 provinces and each province contains a certain number of administratives units. I dont have ESRI Arc view. I want to add a admistrative unit of the center province to the map with 10 province. Is it possible to to take a peace of shapefile and combining it to another ? Thanks !

Dear All, I'v tried to read in data in numerous ways including:- Spain10km<-data.frame(readAsciiGrid("F://RMap//sp10kpointid1.aux")) Error in readAsciiGrid("F://RMap//sp10kpointid1.aux") : object 'cellsize' not found In addition: Warning message: In readLines(t, n = 6) : incomplete final line found on 'F://RMap//sp10kpointid1.aux'

Hi I have a 3 x 2 contingency table: 10 20 30 40 50 60 I want to update the frequencies to new marginal totals: 100 130 40 80 110 I want to use the ipf (iterative proportional fitting) function which is apparently in the cat package. Can somebody please advice me how to input this data and invoke ipf in R to obtain an updated contingency table? Thanks. By the way I am quite new to R. -- Dr

Hello, I have an ESRI ArGis geo database directory which I would like to convert to geojson or a shape file (or anything else that I can read into R). Unfortunately that does not work out of the box with rgdal, because it does not come with the fileGDB or openfileGDB driver. I could successfully install gdal and the fileGDB driver/extension, but it seems that i can use gdal only to convert the

Hi, I am working on a library of map functions for R and I have started with code to read shapefiles (the format is not great but it is ubiquitous). I am not a windows person, but where I am working I don't have access to any UNIX machines easily. So here's the problem I wrote C code to read the information out of the shapefile header and I compiled it using the script given in Ripley and

The web site for CentOS is not responding. I can ping it OK, but the web site is not responding to http requests from my browser. If the webmaster should happen to read this...

I recently set up a samba PDC 2.2.8 for testing purposes only. Everything runs well enough now. There is one thing I can't seem to get to work. I made a logon.bat logon script for sharing a share called 'databank' on T: and it works correctly, but trying to get the windows mount the home folder too results in no mounting. That is: no databank and no home folder (on T: and Y:). My

Hello I wonder if anybody can help, I am using the package adehabitatHR to estimate the potential distribution of a species using the command "domain" In the example given in the AdehabitatHS manual a map containing elevation information is loaded (class= spatial pixels data frame) as well as the GPS points of the animals being tracked, these are then plotted on each other and

I am trying to build a simple dll with Rcmd SHLIB to link into R. The results of the build are below. From my limited knowledge of building DLLs, it looks like it worked (I didn't get any errors). F:\R\dlls> Rcmd SHLIB add.C making add.d from add.C g++ -IC:/PROGRA~1/R/src/include -Wall -O2 -c add.C -o add.o ar cr add.a *.o ranlib add.a g++ --shared -s -o add.dll add.def add.a

I would like to reference array dimensions by name in an apply and a summary function. For example: apply(x, "workers", sum) Is there a better way to do this than creating a new attribute for the array and then creating new methods for apply and summary? I don't want to name the individual elements of each dimension (such as with dimnames) but rather name the dimensions. Thanks

We just upgraded our samba server from 3.0.14 to 3.0.21a and have discovered a subtle but very painful problem. Users of ESRI ArcMap (on fully patched Windows XP clients) are unable to read complex layered file data. Arcmap works fine with 3.0.14, it works fine with the data on a windows share, and it works fine when I set up a server to run the version of samba shipping with Solaris 9 (3.0.2! ).
