read.geodata(file, header = FALSE, coords.col = 1:2, data.col = 3,
data.names = NULL, covar.col = NULL, covar.names = "header",
units.m.col = NULL, realisations = NULL,
na.action = c("ifany", "ifdata", "ifcovar", "none"),
rep.data.action, rep.covar.action, rep.units.action, ...)Arguments
file
a string with the name of the ASCII file.
header
logical.
Indicates whether the variables names should be
read from the first line of the input file.
coords.col
a vector with the numbers of the columns containing the
coordinates.
data.col
a scalar or vector with the number of the column(s)
containing the data.
data.names
a string or vector of strings with names for
the data columns. Only valid if there is more than one column of
data.
By default the names in the original object are used.
covar.col
optional. A scalar or vector with the number
of the column(s) with the values of the covariate(s).
covar.names
optional. A vector with the names of the
the covariates. By default the names in the original object are
used.
units.m.col
optional. A scalar
with the column number corresponding to the offset variable.
Alternativelly can be a character vector with the name of the
offset. This option is particularly relevant when using the package
geoRglm. realisations
optional. A vector indicating the replication
number. For more details see documentation for
as.geodata. na.action
a string. Defines action to be taken in the presence of
NA's. For more details see documentation for
as.geodata. rep.data.action
a string or a function. Defines action to be taken when there is more than
one data at the same location. For more details see documentation for
as.geodata. rep.covar.action
a string or a function. Defines action to be taken when there is more than
one covariate at the same location. For more details see documentation for
as.geodata. rep.units.action
a string or a function.
Defines action to be taken on the element units.m, if present
when there is more than
one data at the same location. The default option is the same
value set for rep.data.action.
