You could do this completely within R by installing both rgdal and
rpostresql (http://code.google.com/p/rpostgresql/). You'll have to split
your queries in an attribute part (rpostgresql) and a geometry part
(rgdal, returning sp items) and combining them afterwards. I have never
done this but it should work. Moreover, one of the developers of
rpostgesql is Joe Conway, the maker of PL/R. He'll certainly anser
questions on the PL/R mailing list.

You could install rgdal in R and then use that R-version for PL/R
(http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rgdal/index.html) . It's a bit
round-about of course: do you use PostGIS from R, or R from PostGIS?

Hi List
Has anybody ever tried to read the value of geometry column from a table
into a R-language application using the plr handler, is this a support
option?
Thanks in advance.
