Class "SpatialPointsDataFrame"

Class for spatial attributes that have spatial point locations

# S4 method for class 'SpatialPointsDataFrame'

  # S4 method for class 'SpatialPointsDataFrame'

  # S3 method for class 'SpatialPointsDataFrame'
rbind(...)

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form coordinates(x) = c("x", "y") . or of the form coordinates(x) = xy; see coordinates.

Slots

data:

Object of class data.frame containing the attribute data (may or may not contain the coordinates in its columns)

coords:

Object of class "matrix"; the coordinates matrix (points are rows in the matrix)

coords.nrs

Object of class logical; if TRUE, when the object was created the coordinates were retrieved from the data.frame, and hence stripped from it; after coercion to data.frame, e.g. by as.data.frame(x), coordinates will again be added (as first few columns) to the data.frame

bbox:

Object of class "matrix"; bounding box

proj4string:

Object of class "CRS"; projection string

Extends

Class "SpatialPoints", directly. Class "Spatial", by class "SpatialPoints".

Arguments
