Jim, I'm sorry that this not answer your question; refering to this graphic gallery, I discovered that fig21 is no longer matches current states in sp, so I updated the complete set on sourceforge (and the sources in cvs, target spweb). For fig21, I also had to update the generating code, as panel

[R-sig-Geo] Using the Z value for 3-D polygons?

2009-03-02 Thread Jim Burke
Hi Everyone, QUESTION: How can I plot a spatial polygon (SpatialPolygonsDataFrame) as 3-d? Perhaps using "spplot.polygons" with its z value? GOAL: To have a series of polygons look like approximately like the last example in the PDF below. http://ocw.mit.edu/NR/rdonlyres/Urban-Studies-and-Pl

It seems that SAGA GIS stores angles (slope, aspect) in internally radian, but it shows them in degrees when displaying them in the GUI of SAGA GIS. I noticed that once in the context of slope angles and was pretty puzzled... just do *180/pi to convert radian into degree. A. gianni lavared

Dear Professor, Thanks for your competence and your work in RSAGA and Rypgeo. This packages are very useful and interesting. I am testing different geoprocessing code in RSAGA, SAGA, Phyton and Rypgeo to see the results, but I noticed a singular situation. I am using this code to create SLOPE and

Dear Gianni, ArcGIS is not that flexible; it does not allow you to directly create an ASCII raster as an output of a geoprocessing tool. Try this to create an ESRI raster "SLOPE" and then convert the result to ASCII: setwd("C:/work") env = rpygeo.build.env(overwriteoutput = 1, work
