Here is another way to compute buffered polygons around points: ## One record (point) at a time (buffer of 25m radius) > temp x y 1 -300358 748992.6
library(spatstat) discbuff<-disc(radius=25, centre=c(temp$x, temp$y)) library(sp) polybuff<-SpatialPolygons(list(Polygons(list(Polygon(rbind(cbind(discbuff$bdry[[1]]$x, y=discbuff$bdry[[1]]$y), c(discbuff$bdry[[1]]$x[1], y=discbuff$bdry[[1]]$y[1])))), ID=row.names(temp)))) plot(polybuff) points(temp, col="red") ## Numerous records (points) at once (buffer of 25m radius) > temp x y 1 -300358.0 748992.6 7 -300450.8 748764.8 13 -300415.1 748865.8 19 -300504.5 748698.4 25 -300488.4 748460.1 polys<-list() for(i in 1:nrow(temp)) { discbuff<-disc(radius=25, centre=c(temp$x[i], temp$y[i])) discpoly<-Polygon(rbind(cbind(discbuff$bdry[[1]]$x, y=discbuff$bdry[[1]]$y), c(discbuff$bdry[[1]]$x[1], y=discbuff$bdry[[1]]$y[1]))) polys<-c(polys, discpoly) } spolys<-list() for(i in 1:length(polys)) { spolybuff<-Polygons(list(polys[[i]]), ID=row.names(temp)[i]) spolys<-c(spolys, spolybuff) } polybuffs<-SpatialPolygons(spolys) plot(polybuffs) points(temp, col="red") Tyler [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ R-sig-Geo mailing list R-sig-Geo@stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-geo
