GEOmap (version 2.5-11)

insideGEOmapXY: Get LAT-LON points that fall inside a map

Description

Get LAT-LON points that fall inside a map

Usage

insideGEOmapXY(lat, lon, PROJ = NULL, R = NULL, PMAT = NULL)

Value

Vector of index values for points that satisfy geographic criteria

Arguments

lat

vector of latitudes

lon

vector of longitudes

PROJ

projection structure

PMAT

persp matrix for perspective plot

R

List(lat, lon, radius) for selecting instead of using usr coordinates

Author

Jonathan M. Lees<jonathan.lees.edu>

Details

The parameters par("usr") is queried and used to select the lat and lons that fall within the mapped region. If the list R=list(lat, lon, radius) is provided, then all indeces of points falling within that radius are returned.

Examples

if (FALSE) {

data('japmap', package='geomapdata' )
isel1 = which( japmap$STROKES$code != "i" & japmap$STROKES$num>120 )

 PROJfuji = setPROJ(type = 2, LAT0=35.358,LON0=138.731)
plotGEOmapXY(japmap, PROJ=PROJfuji, SEL=isel1 , add=FALSE)
