A ridiculous question, but I am having trouble finding a mirror which has the gstat package. Any clues? Thanks, Pete ___ R-sig-Geo mailing list R-sig-Geo@stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-geo

You can wrap it in a ?try: f <- "file" #f <- "utm55.tif" info <- try(GDALinfo(f), silent = TRUE) if (inherits(info, "try-error")) { ## do something else stop("no good, file not found: ", f) } else { ## proceed d <- readGDAL(f) } On Tue, Jul 27, 2010 at

[R-sig-Geo] GDALinfo with unrecognized format...

2010-07-26 Thread Jonathan Greenberg
r-sig-geo'ers: Quick question: is there an easy way to have a flag to tell if a dataset is NOT supported, e.g. when GDALinfo(fname) is in error? I'd like something like "GDALinfo(fname)" to return "FALSE" if its an unsupported dataset type. Thanks! --j _
