disaggregate-methods: disaggregate SpatialLines, SpatialLinesDataFrame, SpatialPolygons, or SpatialPolygonsDataFrame objects

Description

disaggregate SpatialLines, SpatialLinesDataFrame, SpatialPolygons, or SpatialPolygonsDataFrame objects

Usage

disaggregate(x, ...)

Arguments

x

object of class SpatialLines or SpatialPolygons

...

ignored

Value

• object of class SpatialLines or SpatialPolygons, where groups of Line or Polygon are disaggregated to one Line per Lines, or one Polygon per Polygons, respectively.

Examples

Sr1 = Polygon(cbind(c(2,4,4,1,2),c(2,3,5,4,2)), hole = FALSE)
Sr2 = Polygon(cbind(c(5,4,2,5),c(2,3,2,2)), hole = FALSE)
Sr3 = Polygon(cbind(c(4,4,5,10,4),c(5,3,2,5,5)), hole = FALSE)
Sr4 = Polygon(cbind(c(5,6,6,5,5),c(4,4,3,3,4)), hole = TRUE)

Srs1 = Polygons(list(Sr1, Sr2), "s1/2")
Srs3 = Polygons(list(Sr3, Sr4), "s3/4")
sp = SpatialPolygons(list(Srs1,Srs3), 1:2)
length(sp) ## [1] 2
length(disaggregate(sp)) ## [1] 3
