similar to: how to read point shp file to R?

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

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 users, I am using spatstat to analyze point patterns (tree locations). I would like to import the shapefile with the study area polygons (six total) into R and use it to create the window for the spatstat analysis. I do not simply want to use a rectangle because the study areas spread out over 40000 ha. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Charlotte Reemts Charlotte

I am not sure a previous e-mail reached the list (no mail aknowledgement from R-boundle etc.). The question was how to write polygon or segment coordinates into a shapefile set or any other ArcGIS supported format. The library shapefiles seems to do something but the documentation is a bit beyond of my mind.... and I cannot get the meaning of the functions write**** and its application to the case

A bit new to R and I'm working on something a bit more challenging than I am used to- so here's whats going on: Data inputs: 9 different shapefiles (.shp) of different point locations (lat, long) shapefile bounding box (lat/long corner points (14, 1) (15,1) (14, 2) (15,2)) 1 .csv of lat/long coordinates for points Goal: a-

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 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, is there a package in R that would allow map drawing: coastlines, country/state boundaries, maybe topography, rivers etc? Thanks for any guidance, Mark

Hello, I would like to know if (as the usa map with Splus), it is possible with R to plot the french map and to add points (representing towns for instance) on the figure in the appropriate (x,y) system. Thank you. Nathalie Peyrard

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

I am working with transition matrices of sequences of animal behaviours. What I would like to do is parse the original matrices, adjusting row/column order so that the matrix has its main values in blocks surrounding the diagonal. This would cause behaviours involved in functional groupings (e.g. grooming, resting, foraging etc) to appear as blocks. This can be done manually by applying

Hi, I want to use map("state") and have the ecoregion shape (please see link) file projected onto this. ftp://ftp.epa.gov/wed/ecoregions/cec_na/NA_CEC_Eco_Level3.zip ftp://ftp.epa.gov/wed/ecoregions/cec_na/NA_CEC_Eco_Level3.zip Could someone please show me how; I have never messed with this sort of thing.

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

Hello. I'm new on that forum, so I would use some help... I'm programing with R program, have some exercise to do. So here it goes. 1. I have to upload two libraryes "sp" and "maptools" 2. This command is troubling me : towns <- readShapeSpatial("OB/OB.shp") 3. When I'm pressing f5, there is an error called: Error: could not find function

Hi Guys Thanks for this! As I am a beginner, I bet I'm running into some really basic problems. Using the example from the Map2poly function in maptools: try <- read.shape("euadmll.shp") mappolys <- Map2poly(try) # this produces 14 warnings() of the type: # 1: level 2 circularity at 62 in: .mtlbuild(.mtafters(r1), rD) # etc # 14: From next release, default hole handling

I just uploaded two packages to CRAN. shapefiles_0.1.tar.gz - functions to read and write ESRI shapefiles (including dbfs) emme2_0.1.tar.gz - functions to read binary data from an EMME/2 databank data (EMME/2 is a transportation modeling program) Please let me know if you find any bugs or have some suggestions. Thanks. Regards, Benjamin Stabler Transportation Planning Analysis Unit Oregon

Dear All, In the moment i'm using the map and maptools package to read shapefiles and display the maps. I'm looking for the possibility to draw points (randomly positioned or positioned according to a grid) into the polygons instead of filling the polygons with colors. For example: a map (shapefile) with 10 countries, 15 points in the polygon of country A, 20 points in the
