Hello,
Can anyone tell me how to buffer a polygon by area? 
I have a simple (no-holes and only one feature) polygon shapefile in an equal 
area projection and I need to buffer it to extend the boundaries so that the 
resulting polygon is 10% bigger by area. I know how to buffer by a fixed 
distance using the rgeos package but I will have to repeat this process across 
many different shapefiles that are of different sizes and a fixed buffer does 
not make sense in my case. 
Thanks in advance for the help!
