What's wrong with rpoispp in spatstat? It can simulate over a polygon, which can of course be used to closely approximate a circle. There is also spsample in the sp package.
I'd also suggest asking this question on r-sig-geo. -- Don MacQueen Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory 7000 East Ave., L-627 Livermore, CA 94550 925-423-1062 On 1/6/12 5:17 AM, "herbert8...@gmx.de" <herbert8...@gmx.de> wrote: >Dear All, > >I was searching through the spatstat manual in order to find a function >to simulate a Poisson pattern only within a fixed radius (circular moving >window) around individual points.
