cr_outline_c: Costa Rica Continental Outline

Description

An sf polygon containing the continental outline of Costa Rica, derived from GADM 4.1. The Isla del Coco and all other minor oceanic islands have been removed, retaining only the largest polygon (the continental landmass).

For the full outline including all islands, see cr_outline.

A simplified outline of Costa Rica as an `sf` object.

Usage

cr_outline_c
cr_outline_c

Format

An sf object with 1 feature and 1 column:

geometry

POLYGON in WGS 84 (EPSG:4326) with 30,261 vertices, representing the continental outline of Costa Rica.

An `sf` object containing polygon geometry of Costa Rica.

Details

## Island removal Costa Rica includes the Isla del Coco (~550 km offshore in the Pacific), which is excluded here. The continental polygon is obtained by casting the GADM multipolygon to individual polygons and retaining the one with the largest area. For analyses requiring all national territory, use cr_outline.
