[R] any good way to convert sp class objects to splancs object

2006-10-25 Thread Dylan Beaudette
Greetings:

are there any simple ways to convert an sp class object to a splancs ppp class 
object, outside of reading the coordinates and computing a bounding box?

cheers,

Aren't ppp class objects from the spatstat package? Have you tried the 
spspatstat wrapper package on the R-spatial sourceforge repository? The 
as() coerce method should get you there.

If you really mean splancs, there are not wrappers yet, but are on their 
way.

(Consider posting on R-sig-geo for specific questions like this).

  cheers,


Thanks for the reply Roger.

I made a slight mistake. I meant to say:

convert sp class object (point / polygon) to a *spatstat* ppp class object.

in the mean time i had come up with the following hack:

# extract data from sp coords slot
# extract data from sp bbox slot

#manually build ppp class object with the ppp() function.

#note that in spatstat the ordering of vertices in a polygon must be in 
counter-clockwise direction, so i had to reverse my vertex vectors.

i will post the worked up examples with data in a bit.

thanks!
