##### Projection of coordinates

Projection of lat/long coordinates or its inverse.

Keywords
spatial
##### Usage
project(xy, proj, inverse = FALSE, degrees = TRUE, silent = FALSE,
ellps.default="sphere")
##### Arguments
xy

input (list, matrix or 2d-array) - see details below.

proj

projection definition

inverse

if TRUE inverse projection is performed (from a cartographic projection into lat/long), otherwise projects from lat/long into a cartographic projection.

degrees

if TRUE then the lat/long data is assumed to be in degrees, otherwise in radians

silent

if set to TRUE, warnings will be suppressed

ellps.default

default ellipsoid that will be added if no datum or ellipsoid parameter is specified in proj. Older versions of PROJ.4 didn't require a datum (and used sphere by default), but 4.5.0 and higher always require a datum or an ellipsoid. Set to NA if no datum should be added to proj (e.g. if you specify an ellipsoid directly).

##### Details

The input can be a list of two or more vectors (if the list contains more than two entries, only first two entries are used and a warning is issued), a two-dimensional matrix or array (the number of columns or rows must be exactly two) or a vector of the length 2. For a 2x2 input the columns are taken as x and y. If the input is a list then the result will be a list with the entries named x and y, otherwise the result is a matrix with two columns.

When the list form is used, inputs are recycled with a warning when necessary.

proj specifies the target (or source if inverse) projection. The format can be either a single (unnamed) string which contains all parameters: "+proj=lcc +lat_1=33 +lat_2=45 +lat_0=39 +lon_0=-96" or an unnamed vector of complete individual parameters: c("+proj=lcc","+lat_1=33","+lat_2=45","+lat_0=39","+lon_0=-96") or a named vector or list that will be composed into parameters: list(proj="lcc", lat_1=33, lat_2=45, lat_0=39, lon_0=-96)

if degrees is TRUE then the latitude and longitude are expected to be in degrees, if FALSE then in radians.

##### Value

A two column matrix or list of coordinates. If the input was a list then the output will be a list, otherwise a matrix.
