problem with our file, but we will create the file again and then it should
work completely. i will keep you posted how it turned out. thanks again!

Specifically, if I put that snippet of yours into a GPX file, I can do:

 > trk= readOGR("m.gpx","track_points")

 > trk
 coordinates track_fid track_seg_id track_seg_point_id ele
1   (16.343, 48.272) 00  0 387

 - obviously there's a lot of stuff there you don't need, so you can do:

 > trk@data=trk@data[,c("ele","time","sat")]
 > trk
 coordinates ele   time sat
1   (16.343, 48.272) 387 2012/01/01 15:32:03+00   9

 That looks suspiciously like a chunk of a GPX format file - GPS
tracks, that kind of thing. Am I right?

If so, then get the rgdal package, and read it in. You'll end up with
a spatial data frame of some kind from which you can get the points
and times.

[R] syntax for reading into R

2012-01-02 Thread Marion Wenty
dear users,

we have got the following question:

we have got a text-file looking like this:

...
  
387
2012-01-01T15:32:03Z
9
  
  
381
2012-01-01T15:32:34Z
9
  
...

now we would like to create a text file looking like the following, in
order to being able to read it into R afterwards.

->

lat;lon;ele;time;sat
48.272000;16.342984;387;2012-01-01T15:32:03Z;9
48.271909;16.343563;381;2012-01-01T15:32:34Z;9
...

does anyone know how to do this?

thank you very much for your help in advance.

marion
