All,
Just wanted to share this with the group. A new package for accessing
elevation data in R, elevatr, is now on CRAN:
https://cran.r-project.org/package=elevatr
Any questions about the package please let me know either through email or via
the issues at
Dear Loic,
Thank you for your reply!
Re. aggregation, I agree - I will use either mean or median.
gcp_grid are points as below
structure(list(longitude = c(-179L, -178L, -177L, -177L, -177L,
-176L), latitude = c(-15L, -15L, -14L, 51L, 52L, -22L)), .Names =
c("longitude",
"latitude"), row.names

Thank you for your reply. This is what I did:
###
library(data.table)
library(raster)
library(rgdal)
library(foreign)
elevation_world <- getData('worldclim', var='alt', res=2.5)
# Aggregate Elevation to 1 degree
elevation_world_1deg <- aggregate(elevation_world, fact = 24, fun = sum)
# Extract
R raster::getData("SRTM", ...) will return elevation rasters at 90m
resolution.
See:

Dear all.
Is there a way to download global elevation data at the 1° x 1° resolution
in R using a given set of coordinates?
I know about the getData() function but can many coordinates be passed
through this? Thanks!
Sincerely,
Milu
