Use readOGR from the rgdal package to read shapefiles - it will handle the projection properly (unless maptools has fxed this). > and now I would like to fill gaps in the shape file (missing numbers) with > the numbers from intersecting lines > I have tried with gintersect but I can only get true or false for answer and > not the numbers of the intersected lines... > For example for the first line.... > gIntersects(WVA[1,],WVA, byid=TRUE) > > Is there another possibility to do this? Its hard to figure out what you are trying to do - a picture might help, but there's no image posting to this mailing list. If you could make a diagram and upload it somewhere we can all see it (any picture hosting service - flickr, picasa, etc etc) then we might get a better idea. My first problem with your explanation is I don't understand exactly what 'gaps in the shapefile (missing numbers)' means. Its a set of line features - where are the gaps? Is it missing attribute data or coordinate data? Barry _______________________________________________ R-sig-Geo mailing list R-sig-Geo@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-geo
