similar to: convert Map shapes to logical matrices - for set operations

My sincerest apologies, as this is a very elementary problem, but I have searched through archives and FAQs and on the web, and I am at the end of my own resources. I need to do analysis of a spatial point process occuring with four counties, using spatstat. I've had no trouble importing the shapefiles, but I can't seem to figure out what I need to do in order to use the boundary as an

Dear R list, I'm trying to create an object of class "owin" (observation window) in the package spatstat from GIS mapping data. Here's an example of my problem. Everything goes well until the last line of code. I get the error message shown at the bottom: library(spatstat) library(sp) library(maptools) con <- url("http://gadm.org/data/rda/CHE_adm1.RData") class(con)

Hello, I am using the following code to create ppp files from csv data and map shape files, but I am getting some errors which I have been unable to fix by searching them online: library(spatstat) library(maps) library(maptools) NYC2<-readShapePoly("nybb.shp") # this is a map of the NYC boroughs without waterways and no census tract divisions (but it does include lines separating

In converting some older code: ## builds an OWIN to generate a set of points on a grid within the OWIN object: bdry <- read.shape( "../../data/boundary.shp" ) outline.verts <- bdry$Shapes[[2]]$verts[1:bdry$Shapes[[2]]$Pstart[2],] outline.order <- nrow( outline.verts ) : 2 bdry.poly <- vector( 2, mode="list" ) bdry.poly[[1]] <- list(

Hi, I'd like to read a shapefile into a Map object. This is exactly what read.shape{maptools} is suppoed to do, according to the documentation I found in the link below. However, this doesn't seem to work library(maptools)x <- read.shape(system.file("shapes/sids.shp", package="maptools")[1])Error: could not find function "read.shape" I haven't

I am having difficulty loading a points shapefile (1600 records) I generated from ArcGIS as a PointsSpatialDataFrame using the maptools readShapePoints function. library(maptools) surveypts <- readShapePoints(system.file("C:/temp/survey.shp", package="maptools")[1] Error in getinfo.shape(filen) : Error opening SHP file I've tried numerous re-exports and renames of the

Dear all, I am currently working with the spatstat package, using windows and pixel images. First: My aim is to transform a shapefile (see attached) into a pixel image. My idea is to start transforming the shapefile into a Spatial Polygon file: x <- readShapeSpatial("200001441.shp") y <- as(x, "SpatialPolygons") z <- as.owin(y) Given z, I want to identify each

Hi ! I have a shapefile that I can easily read into R using library(maptools). My problem stems from some warning messages that come even though everything seems to work fine. library(maptools) districts <- read.shape(filen = "a_ds", dbf.data = TRUE) length(districts$Shapes) so far so good. when I try and plot this I get a nice plot and a warning message: > plot(districts)

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

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

I am a new user of the R spatstat package and am having problems creating a polygonal observation window with owin(). Code follows: library("maps") library ("sp")` library("spatstat") mass.map <- map("state", "massachusetts:main", fill=T) # This returns a data frame includding x and y components that form a polygon of massachusetts mainland`

Hello everybody, I'm trying to understand how to draw a smoothed scatterplot on a geographic map with R. Have a dataframe with point locations (long, lat) and was able to simply plot these points on a shp map by using the maptools package. However, instead of having simply the raw points on the map, I would like to have a "smoothed" scatterplot of the same superimposed on the map.

Hello All, I'm running Samba 3.0.24 as PDC and file server on Gentoo Linux, AMD64, 2.6.19 kernel, 100MBit/s network, and experience quite slow file transfers from Samba to WinXP SP2 clients: the speed is varying, but is about 1-2Mb/s at best. I spent quite some time investigating the issue, here are the intermediate results: 1) This happens only when transferring _from_ _Samba_ to

Preamble: ========= In spatial point pattern analysis an important component of a point pattern object is the *observation window*. In the spatstat package we have the function owin() to *construct* such a window. It creates an object of class "owin" which can happily exist separately from any point pattern object (object of class "ppp"). However we have at the moment

I am building a mask with area.urb.sp.W <- as(area.urb.sp, "owin") and got the message Erro em owin(poly = opls) : Polygon data contain duplicated vertices, self-intersection and overlaps between polygons how can I solve this problem in R? many thanks IVAN [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, we all know that R is powerful in dealing with graphics. I am now trying to use R to show some geographic attributes for a specific geographic area on a graph. For example, if I would like to generate a graph showing the population densities (in terms of the intensity of colors) for Illinois State by zip codes. I did some research; and it seems that package "maptools" is

summary: I can display a lon-lat map on a lattice::layerplot, and I can display a Lambert conformal conic (LCC) map on a spam::image, but I can't display an LCC map on a lattice::layerplot. Example follows. What am I doing wrong? details: I've been using `lattice` (via `rasterVis`) successfully to display global atmospheric data, which works well enough (though I am definitely intrigued
