as.geojson: Methods to coerce geographical coordinates into a geojson polygon

Description

Take single points from geographical coordinates and coerce it into a geojson 'Polygon' string

Usage

as.geojson(lonlat, dist = 1e-05, nQuadSegs = 2L, ...)
# S3 method for default
as.geojson(lonlat, dist = 1e-05, nQuadSegs = 2L, ...)
# S3 method for sf
as.geojson(lonlat, dist = 1e-05, nQuadSegs = 2L, ...)

Arguments

lonlat

a data.frame or matrix with geographical coordinates lonlat, in that order, or an object of class 'sf' and geometry type 'POINT' or 'POLYGON'

dist

numeric, buffer distance for all lonlat

nQuadSegs

integer, number of segments per quadrant

...

further arguments passed to sf methods

Value

An object of class 'geosjon' for each row in lonlat

Examples

# NOT RUN {
# Default S3 Method
# random geographic points within bbox(10, 12, 45, 47)
library("sf")

set.seed(123)
lonlat <- data.frame(lon = runif(2, 10, 12),
                     lat = runif(2, 45, 47))

gjson <- as.geojson(lonlat)
