geom: Get the coordinates of a vector type Spatial* object

Description

Extract the coordinates of a Spatial object

Usage

# S4 method for SpatialPolygons
geom(x, sepNA=FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x

SpatialPolygons*, SpatialLines*, or SpatialPoints* object

sepNA

logical. If TRUE, geometries are separated by a row with NA values

...

additional arguments, none implemented

Value

Matrix with 6, (5 SpatialLines), or 3 (SpatialPoints) columns. object (sequential object number) part (sequential part number within the object; not for SpatialPoints), cump (cumulative part number; not for SpatialPoints), hole (is this a hole or not; only for SpatialPolygons), x (x coordinate or longitude), y (y coordinate or latitude)

Examples

# NOT RUN {
p <- readRDS(system.file("external/lux.rds", package="raster"))
x <- geom(p)
head(x)
	
# and back to a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame	
x <- data.frame(x)
sp <- as(x, "SpatialPolygons")
crs(sp) <- crs(p)
spdf <- SpatialPolygonsDataFrame(sp, data.frame(p), match.ID=FALSE)
# }
