Re: [R] New to R, Curious about Project Idea
Phil, You should look onto sp package which is the base for any other spatial packages in R http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/sp/index.html Also notice Reverse depends section where you can find a lot of useful packages for spatial operations and analysis. For loading shape files, maptools, rgdal and similar packages will help you. You can read on-line Applied Spatial Data Analysis with R http://www.springerlink.com/content/978-0-387-78171-6#section=147788page=1 which contains a lot of examples to work and analyze spatial data in R (the authors of the book are also the authors of sp and other spatial packages in R) Very important package is rgeos that contains all GIS functions: covers, intersects, inside, You can also find ideas in Clemens Reimann - Statistical Data Analysis Explained. Applied Environmental Statistics with R – 2008 (however it does not contain R code) Good morning, I am a student whom is currently working on a term project for my GIS Program. I am looking for a software package which can aid me in my project, and I was curious if R would be able to address my goals. My project includes power outage data from a hydro company (point data, with UTM coordinates attached), which is available in an Access database, or in a Shapefile. I would like to be able to take this poweroutage data, and then perform a spatial analysis of this data, perhaps as a hot-spot analysis, or in a points per raster square style analysis. With the completed analysis, I would like to be able to use an open source web mapping platform to display it for the 'company' I am performing this for as part of my project. Any insight you could provide me would be greatly, greatly appreciated.

It sounds quite possible but you'll probably get more specialized help if you ask on the r-sig-geo mailing list.

Thanks, Phil Not my area of expertise, but if you go to your favorite CRAN mirror and look at the task views, you will find info on spatial analysis. Also, Googling 'R GIS' brings up a ton of hits.
