Re: [R-sig-Geo] convert "errorsarlm" to "lm"

2017-10-21 Thread niv de malach
Regarding your question about MRF, I don't know what it is...

I know that the package piecewiseSEM accept the following object types:

‘lm‘, ‘rq‘, ‘glm‘, ‘glm.nb‘, ‘gls‘, ‘pgls‘, ‘merMod‘, ‘merModLmerTest‘,
‘lme‘, ‘glmmPQL‘, ‘glmmadmb‘, and ‘glmmTMB‘.

so  "transformation" of errorsarlm to any of these object should solve the
problem.


Below there is a code where a dataset is simulated and analyzed using 'lm'
and 'errorsarlm'. Only 'lm' is accepted for
SEM analysis.

Thanks,
Niv

2017-10-21 Thread Edzer Pebesma
The the NOTEs on CRAN and the issues raised on Mike's raster-rforge GH
repo to me suggest that raster has, for a while now, reached a mature
state. Of course, you'd wish that raster development, in terms of
extending its power and features, would continue the pace it did 10
years ago, but that's a different issue. Mike has write access to the
raster r-forge sources, it shouldn't be hard to support Robert with
current issues.

Right after rstudio::conf (Feb 4/5) I'm meeting with Robert Hijmans and
Etienne Racine, to discuss, and work on raster future and integration of
rasters and stars. Anyone interested, feel free to join.

Stars has the ambition to jump over raster, in the sense that it doesn't
want to have the local hard drive as a limitation. That calls for
rethinking quite a few things. So far, things are still all in main
memory but it already integrates with sf:

https://gist.github.com/edzer/381dac079ddcd5174be31209675b3822

and handles time stacks of different attributes in single objects. Feed
back welcome as always; will write up the first blog in a few weeks.

Re: [R-sig-Geo] spplot help, please

2017-10-21 Thread Florian Detsch
The others are right, there is no state map in your code that you might 
add to the points plot.


After a quick inspection of which geographic area we are dealing with, 
here is one possible - and quite basic - solution on how to add state 
polygons of the US (if that is what you intend to do) to your plot:


## download state polygons for the us
library(raster)
usa = getData("GADM", country = "USA", level = 1)

## create subset of state polygons (otherwise spplot() will take quite 
long)

proj4string(res.adpt$SDF) = "+init=epsg:4326"

ext = extend(extent(res.adpt$SDF), 2.5)
states = crop(usa, ext)

## add state boundaries using 'sp.layout'
p = spplot(res.adpt$SDF, c("ols.e","gwr.e"), main = "Residuals",
   sp.layout = list("sp.polygons", states))
p

Alternatively, you could also use latticeExtra::layer() instead of 
'sp.layout'. Simply have a look at the help pages for further details.


Cheers,
Florian

Yes, this sounds fruitful. For now, I suggest that those wishing to enhance 
raster do so in an additional package enhancing raster and depending on it. 
Immediately, we should help Robert resolve the notes in the tests, they do not 
affect functionality now, but deserve attention to bring the package into full 
CRAN compliance. I can help with this.

Many of us rely on the raster package as a crucial basis for their work. Big 
thank to Robert.  Nevertheless to contribute needs to focus needs and 
ressources.  Maybe an information exchange/discussion with Robert about options 
such as if/how the interested community can support would be more productive.

Re: [R-sig-Geo] Is the raster package still receiving updates?

2017-10-21 Thread Chris Reudenbach
Many of us rely on the raster package as a crucial basis for their work. 
Big thank to Robert.  Nevertheless to contribute needs to focus needs 
and ressources.  Maybe an information exchange/discussion with Robert 
about options such as if/how the interested community can support would 
be more productive.


cheers Chris

The CRAN raster package has not been abandoned, if it had, it would have been 
reclassified as orphaned. Its test results have notes but no warnings or 
errors. It would be orphaned if the maintainer did not respond to CRAN requests 
to resolve test errors. Consequently, you are suggesting a fork, and should 
rename any package. Only the maintainer may update existing CRAN packages. I 
would not think that forking an existing CRAN package is the most productive 
way of contributing to the community. The package has many reverse 
dependencies, so setting up a test framework to find backwards 
incompatibilities would be crucial.

Of course, all contributions are welcome.

Great!
