Description

SoilProfileCollections can be coerced to other R object types using as(spc, 'type').

Possible endpoints include: list, data.frame, SpatialPointsDataFrame and SpatialPoints.

Value

list

data.frame

tbl_df

data.table

SpatialPointsDataFrame

SpatialPoints

Examples

# load example data stored as SoilProfileCollection
data(sp5)

# sp5
str(sp5)

# list output
str(as(sp5, 'list'))

# data.frame output
str(as(sp5, 'data.frame'))

# Spatial Objects
# make some random coordinate data for each profile
sp5$x <- sp5$y <- rnorm(length(sp5))
coordinates(sp5) <- ~ x + y

# SpatialPointsDataFrame output
str(as(sp5, 'SpatialPointsDataFrame'))

# SpatialPoints output
str(as(sp5, 'SpatialPoints'))
