Content
Geospatial Data Handling in R
- Properties of geographical data
- Classes for geospatial data in R
- Simple features data in R
- Georeferencing
- Using R as a GIS
Lesson competencies
- Importing vector-based geospatial data such as shapefile, kml, etc into R using appropriate sf function(s).
- Converting a simple feature data frame into spatial objection data frame of sp.
- Importing raster-based geospatial data such as jpg into R using apporpriate raster function(s).
- Performing georeferencing and spatial transformation using sf functions
- Performing vector-based geoprocessing function(s) using sf.
- Performing raster-based map algebra and cartographic analysis using functions fro mraster package.
Must do
- Read Chapter 2, 3, 8, 9, 10 of Gimond, M. (2018) Intro to GIS and Spatial Analysis [1]
- Complete the entire course of Spatial Analysis in R with sf and raster of Datacamp.
