Hello,

I looked at your problem and I can't understand it.  What are your trying to 
do?  It's not clear.  Are you trying to find the points that are at less than 
200m from ALL other points?  Or at 200m of AT LEAST one other point?  You have 
a distance matrix here, which is n*n, you can difficultly transpose that to 
your coordinates data frame which is n*2.

Have you thought of using the combination of rgeos::gBuffer() and over()?  
Maybe there's something there.

# I have a SpatialPointsDataFrame that contains points, some of which are 
<=200m from each other, some of which points are >200m from each other. x <- 
c(-1.344, -1.345, -1.346, -1.346,-1.347, -1.328, -1.329, -1.33) y <- 
c(rep(54.76558, 3), 54.7610, 54.7611, rep(54.75167, 3)) xy <- data.frame(x,y, 
values=rnorm(8)) xy <- xy[sample(1:8, 8),]
coordinates(xy) <- c("x", "y")
proj4string(xy) <- CRS("+proj=longlat +ellps=WGS84 +datum=WGS84")
plot(xy)

# find which points are <= 200m
spDists(xy) <= 0.2

# of the points that are <=200m from each other, I need all but one of those 
points removed from xy. I should be left with 3 rows in xy. How do I do this?

Thanks
Ross
