Click on a map (plot) to get values of a Raster* or SpatialGrid or SpatialPixels object at that location; and optionally the coordinates and cell number of the location.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'Raster':
click(x, n=1, id=FALSE, xy=FALSE, cell=FALSE, type="n", ...)

## S3 method for class 'SpatialGrid':
click(x, n=1, id=FALSE, xy=FALSE, cell=FALSE, type = "n", ...)

Arguments

x
Raster*, or Spatial* object (or missing)
n
number of clicks on the map
id
Logical. If TRUE, a numeric ID is shown on the map that corresponds to the row number of the output
xy
