Package 'rgdal'

Title: Bindings for the 'Geospatial' Data Abstraction Library
Description: Provides bindings to the 'Geospatial' Data Abstraction Library ('GDAL') (>= 1.11.4) and access to projection/transformation operations from the 'PROJ' library. Please note that 'rgdal' will be retired during October 2023, plan transition to sf/stars/'terra' functions using 'GDAL' and 'PROJ' at your earliest convenience (see <https://r-spatial.org/r/2023/05/15/evolution4.html> and earlier blogs for guidance). Use is made of classes defined in the 'sp' package. Raster and vector map data can be imported into R, and raster and vector 'sp' objects exported. The 'GDAL' and 'PROJ' libraries are external to the package, and, when installing the package from source, must be correctly installed first; it is important that 'GDAL' < 3 be matched with 'PROJ' < 6. From 'rgdal' 1.5-8, installed with to 'GDAL' >=3, 'PROJ' >=6 and 'sp' >= 1.4, coordinate reference systems use 'WKT2_2019' strings, not 'PROJ' strings. 'Windows' and 'macOS' binaries (including 'GDAL', 'PROJ' and their dependencies) are provided on 'CRAN'.

closeDataset methods

Description

Methods for closing GDAL datasets, used internally

Usage

closeDataset(dataset)
	closeDataset.default(dataset)

Arguments

dataset

GDAL dataset

Methods

dataset = "ANY"

default method, returns error

dataset = "GDALReadOnlyDataset"

closes the "GDALReadOnlyDataset"

dataset = "GDALTransientDataset"

closes the "GDALTransientDataset"


Class "CRS" of coordinate reference system arguments

Description

Interface class to the PROJ.4 projection system. The class is defined as an empty stub accepting value NA in the sp package. If the rgdal package is available, then the class will permit spatial data to be associated with coordinate reference systems

Usage

checkCRSArgs_ng(uprojargs=NA_character_, SRS_string=NULL,
  get_source_if_boundcrs=TRUE)
compare_CRS(CRS1, CRS2)

Arguments

uprojargs

character string PROJ.4 projection arguments

SRS_string

default NULL, experimental in connection with adaptation to GDAL>=3/PROJ>=6; a valid WKT string or SRS definition such as "OGC:CRS84"

get_source_if_boundcrs

The presence of the +towgs84= key in a Proj4 string projargs= argument value may promote the output WKT2 CRS to BOUNDCRS for PROJ >= 6 and GDAL >= 3, which is a coordinate operation from the input datum to WGS84. This is often unfortunate, so a PROJ function is called through rgdal to retrieve the underlying source definition.

CRS1, CRS2

objects of class "CRS"

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form CRS("projargs"), where "projargs" is a valid string of PROJ.4 arguments; the arguments must be entered exactly as in the PROJ.4 documentation, in particular there cannot be any white space in +<arg>=<value> strings, and successive such strings can only be separated by blanks. The initiation function calls the PROJ.4 library to verify the argument set against those known in the library, returning error messages where necessary. The complete argument set may be retrieved by examining the second list element returned by validObject("CRS object") to see which additional arguments the library will use (which assumptions it is making over and above submitted arguments). The function CRSargs() can be used to show the expanded argument list used by the PROJ.4 library.

Slots

projargs:

Object of class "character": projection arguments; the arguments must be entered exactly as in the PROJ.4 documentation, in particular there cannot be any white space in +<arg>=<value> strings, and successive such strings can only be separated by blanks.

Methods

show

signature(object = "CRS"): print projection arguments in object

Note

Lists of projections may be seen by using the programs installed with the PROJ.4 library, in particular proj and cs2cs; with the latter, -lp lists projections, -le ellipsoids, -lu units, and -ld datum(s) known to the installed software (available in rgdal using projInfo). These are added to in successive releases, so tracking the website or compiling and installing the most recent revisions will give the greatest choice. Finding the very important datum transformation parameters to be given with the +towgs84 tag is a further challenge, and is essential when the datums used in data to be used together differ. Tracing projection arguments is easier now than before the mass ownership of GPS receivers raised the issue of matching coordinates from different argument sets (GPS output and paper map, for example). See GridsDatums and showEPSG for help in finding CRS definitions.

The 4.9.1 release of PROJ.4 omitted a small file of defaults, leading to reports of “major axis or radius = 0 or not given” errors. From 0.9-3, rgdal checks for the presence of this file (proj_def.dat), and if not found, and under similar conditions to those used by PROJ.4, adds “+ellps=WGS84” to the input string being checked by checkCRSArgs The “+no_defs” tag ignores the file of defaults, and the default work-around implemented to get around this problem; strings including “init” and “datum” tags also trigger the avoidance of the work-around. Now messages are issued when a candidate CRS is checked; they may be suppressed using suppressMessages.

Class "GDALDataset"

Description

GDALDataset extends GDALReadOnlyDataset-class with data update commands.

Usage

putRasterData(dataset, rasterData, band = 1, offset = c(0, 0))
saveDataset(dataset, filename, options=NULL, returnNewObj=FALSE)
copyDataset(dataset, driver, strict = FALSE, options = NULL, fname=NULL)

band

The band number (1-based) to read from

offset

Number of rows and columns from the origin (usually the upper left corner) to begin reading from

filename

name of file to contain raster data object; will be normalized with normalizePath

returnNewObj

until and including 0.5-27, saveDataset returned an invisible copy of the new file handle, which was then only finalized when the garbage collector ran. The old behaviour can be retained by setting to FALSE, the default behaviour is to close the hande and not return it.

driver

GDAL driver name to use for saving raster data object

strict

TRUE if the copy must be strictly equivalent, or more normally FALSE indicating that the copy may adapt as needed for the output format

options

Driver specific options (currently passed to GDAL)

fname

default NULL, used internally to pass through a file name with a required extension (RST driver has this problem)

Details

putRasterData:

writes data contained in rasterData to the dataset, begining at offset rows and columns from the origin (usually the upper left corner). Data type conversion is automatic.

saveDataset:

saves a raster data object in a file using the driver of the object

saveDatasetAs:

saves a raster data object in a file using the specified driver

copyDataset:

make a copy of raster data object in a file using the specified driver

deleteDataset:

delete the file from which the raster data object was read (should only delete files opened as GDALDataset objects

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("GDALDataset", filename, handle), where name: a string giving the name of a GDAL driver, handle: used internally; not for public consumption (default = NULL).

get_cached_orig_GDAL_DATA()
get_cached_set_PROJ_LIB()
get_cached_set_GDAL_DATA()

Arguments

driver

An object inheriting from class 'GDALDriver'

str

A string, may be one of "--version", "VERSION_NUM", "RELEASE_DATE", "RELEASE_NAME"

Details

getGDALDriverNames, gdalDrivers:

getDriverName:

returns the GDAL driver name associated with the driver object.

getDriverLongName:

returns a longer driver name.

getGDALVersionInfo:

returns the version of the GDAL runtime shared object.

getGDALCheckVersion:

checks the version of the GDAL headers used when building the package (GDAL_VERSION_MAJOR, GDAL_VERSION_MINOR) - if the two versions differ, problems may arise (the C++ API/ABI may have changed), and rgdal should be re-installed

getGDALwithGEOS:

because drivers may behave differently if GDAL itself was built with GEOS support, the function uses a heuristic to check whether GDAL has access to the GEOS Union function or not

get_cached_orig_PROJ_LIB, get_cached_orig_GDAL_DATA

The values of environment variables PROJ_LIB and GDAL_DATA as read when this package was loaded

get_cached_set_PROJ_LIB, get_cached_set_GDAL_DATA

If not "", the values set when loading this package to point to metadata files included in CRAN binary packages

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("GDALDriver", name, handle), where name: a string giving the name of a GDAL driver, handle: used internally; not for public consumption (default = NULL).

Slots

handle:

Extends

Class "GDALMajorObject", directly.

Methods

initialize

signature(.Object = "GDALDriver"): drivername: a string giving the name of a GDAL driver, handle: used internally; not for public consumption (default = NULL)

Note

Loading the rgdal package changes the GDAL_DATA environmental variable to the GDAL support files bundled with the package.

Class "GDALMajorObject"

Description

"GDALMajorObject" is a virtual base class for all GDAL objects.

Usage

getDescription(object)

Arguments

object

an object inheriting from "GDALMajorObject"

Details

getDescription:

returns a descrption string associated with the object. No setter method is defined because GDAL dataset objects use the description to hold the filename attached to the dataset. It would not be good to change that mid-stream.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("GDALMajorObject", ...), but are only created for classes that extend this class.

Slots

handle:

Object of class "externalptr", used internally; not for public consumption

Methods

              region.dim = dim(dataset), output.dim = region.dim,
              interleave = c(0, 0), as.is = FALSE, list_out=FALSE) 

getRasterTable(dataset, band = NULL, offset = c(0, 0), 
  region.dim = dim(dataset))

toSigned(x, base)

toUnSigned(x, base)

get_OVERRIDE_PROJ_DATUM_WITH_TOWGS84()
set_OVERRIDE_PROJ_DATUM_WITH_TOWGS84(value)

Arguments

dataset

An object inheriting from class 'GDALReadOnlyDataset'

band

The band number (1-based) to read from

offset

Number of rows and columns from the origin (usually the upper left corner) to begin reading from; presently ordered (y,x) - this may change

region.dim

The number of rows and columns to read from the dataset; presently ordered (y,x) - this may change

output.dim

Number of rows and columns in the output data; if smaller than region.dim the data will be subsampled

interleave

Element and row stride while reading data; rarely needed

as.is

If false, scale the data to its natural units; if the case of thematic data, return the data as factors

list_out

default FALSE, return array, if TRUE, return a list of vector bands

raster

An object of class GDALRasterBand

x

integer variable for conversion

base

If Byte input, 8, if Int16 or UInt16, 16

OVERRIDE_PROJ_DATUM_WITH_TOWGS84

logical value, default NULL, which case the cached option set by set_OVERRIDE_PROJ_DATUM_WITH_TOWGS84 is used. Ignored if the GDAL version is less than “1.8.0” or if the CPLConfigOption variable is already set

enforce_xy

(PROJ6+/GDAL3+) either use global setting (default NULL) or override policy for coordinate ordering easting/x as first axis, northing/y as second axis.

get_source_if_boundcrs

The presence of the +towgs84= key in a Proj4 string projargs= argument value may promote the output WKT2 CRS to BOUNDCRS for PROJ >= 6 and GDAL >= 3, which is a coordinate operation from the input datum to WGS84. This is often unfortunate, so a PROJ function is called through rgdal to retrieve the underlying source definition.

value

logical value to set OVERRIDE_PROJ_DATUM_WITH_TOWGS84

Details

getRasterData:

retrieves data from the dataset as an array or list of bands; will try to convert relevant bands to factor if category names are available in the GDAL driver when returning a list.

getRasterTable:

retrieves data from the dataset as data frame.

getProjectionRef:

returns the geodetic projection in Well Known Text format.

getRasterBand:

returns a raster band

getRasterBlockSize:

returns the natural block size of the raster band. Use this for efficient tiled IO.

toSigned:

used to convert a band read as unsigned integer to signed integer

toUnSigned:

used to convert a band read as signed integer to unsigned integer

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("GDALRasterBand", dataset, band).

Slots

handle:

Object of class "externalptr", from class "GDALMajorObject", used internally; not for public consumption

Extends

Class "GDALMajorObject", directly.

Methods

dim

signature(x = "GDALRasterBand"): ...

initialize

signature(.Object = "GDALRasterBand"): ...

Note

The OVERRIDE_PROJ_DATUM_WITH_TOWGS84 argument is used to revert GDAL behaviour to pre-1.8.0 status; from 1.8.0, any input datum may be discarded if the input also includes a towgs84 tag in conversion to the PROJ.4 representation, see https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/4880 and https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/gdal-dev/2012-November/034550.html. The cached value of OVERRIDE_PROJ_DATUM_WITH_TOWGS84 will also be used in open.SpatialGDAL, sub.GDROD, and asGDALROD_SGDF, which do not have a suitable argument

Class "GDALReadOnlyDataset"

Description

GDALReadOnlyDataset is the base class for a GDAL Dataset classes. Only read operations are supported. Both GDALDataset and GDALTransientDataset inherit these read operations while providing additional write operations (see GDALDataset-class). GDALReadOnlyDataset-class inherits from GDALMajorObject-class.

Usage

GDAL.close(dataset)
GDAL.open(filename, read.only = TRUE, silent=FALSE,
                 allowedDrivers = NULL, options=NULL)
getDriver(dataset)
getColorTable(dataset, band = 1)
getGeoTransFunc(dataset)

Arguments

dataset

An object inheriting from class 'GDALReadOnlyDataset'

filename

name of file to contain raster data object; will be normalized with normalizePath if it is a file

band

The band number (1-based) to read from

read.only

A logical flag indicating whether to open the file as a GDALReadOnlyDataset or as a writable GDALDataset

silent

logical; if TRUE, comment and non-fatal CPL driver errors suppressed

allowedDrivers

a character vector of suggested driver short names may be provided starting from GDAL 2.0

options

open options may be passed to raster drivers starting from GDAL 2.0; very few drivers support these options

Details

GDAL.open and GDAL.close are shorter versions of new("GDALReadOnlyDataset", ...) and closeDataset(). Because GDAL.close through closeDataset() uses the finalization mechanism to destroy the handles to the dataset and its driver, messages such as:

"Closing GDAL dataset handle 0x8ff7900... destroyed ... done."

may appear when GDAL.close is run, or at some later stage. getDriver returns an object inheriting from class 'GDALDriver'. getColorTable returns the dataset colour table (currently does not support RGB imaging). getGeoTransFunc returns a warping function.

subset methods for "GDALReadOnlyDataset"

Description

subsets GDAL objects, returning a SpatialGridDataFrame object

Details

The [ method subsets a GDAL data set, returning a SpatialGridDataFrame object. Reading is done on the GDAL side, and only the subset requested is ever read into memory.

Further named arguments to [ are to either getRasterTable or getRasterData:

as.is

see getRasterData

interleave

see getRasterData

output.dim

see getRasterData

the other arguments, offset and region.dim are derived from row/column selection values.

An GDALReadOnlyDataset object can be coerced directly to a SpatialGridDataFrame

Methods

"["

signature(.Object = "GDALReadOnlyDataset"): requires package sp; selects rows and columns, and returns an object of class SpatialGridDataFrame if the grid is not rotated, or else of class SpatialPointsDataFrame. Any arguments passed to getRasterData (or in case of rotation getRasterTable) may be passed as named arguments; the first three unnamed arguments are row,col,band

Usage

data("GridsDatums")

Format

A data frame with 241 observations on the following 4 variables.

country

name of PE&RS column

month

issue month

year

publication year

ISO

ISO code for country

Details

The journal Photogrammetric Engineering & Remote Sensing, run by the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS), began publishing a more-or-less monthly column on the spatial reference systems used in different countries, including their datums. The column first appeared in September 1997, and continued until March 2016; subsequent columns are updated reprints of previous ones. Some also cover other topics, such as world and Martian spatial reference systems. They are written by Clifford J. Mugnier, Louisiana State University, Fellow Emeritus ASPRS.

PROJ search paths and content download network handling

Description

From PROJ 7 (and partly 7.1), it is becoming possible to use transformation grids downloaded on demand to improve coordinate operation accuracy from a content download network (CDN). These functions report on and control the use of the CDN.

Usage

is_proj_CDN_enabled()
enable_proj_CDN()
disable_proj_CDN()
proj_CDN_user_writable_dir()
get_proj_search_paths()
set_proj_search_paths(paths)

Arguments

paths

a character vector of existing directories

Details

The PROJ user-writable CDN directory is set as soon as the internal search path is queried, and for most uses, the default value will allow all programs using PROJ such as R packages, QGIS, GRASS, etc., to access any downloaded grids. Grids are checked for staleness at regular intervals. This directory may be set to a non-default value with the PROJ_USER_WRITABLE_DIRECTORY environment variable before rgdal (and any other package using PROJ) is loaded and attached, from PROJ >= 7.1.0.

Value

Logical values and/or character vector search paths, often NULL for earlier versions of PROJ.

Numeric vector; either NA, or the xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax of the bounding box of the area of interest. This may be used to restrict the search for coordinate operations

strict_containment

default FALSE, permit partial matching of the area of interest; if TRUE strictly contain the area of interest. The area of interest is either as given, or as implied by the source/target coordinate reference systems (FIXME)

visualization_order

default NULL, taking the value of get_enforce_xy(); if TRUE always choose x or longitude for the first axis; if FALSE, follow the axis orders given by the coordinate reference systems when constructing the coordinate operation

x

an object of class "coordOps"

...

arguments possibly passed through, unused

Details

(FIXME)

Value

A data frame with rows showing the coordinate operations found, and columns:

description

String describing the operation

definition

PROJ pipeline for executing the operation

accuracy

Accuracy in meters, if negative, unknown

instantiable

Can this operation be carried out with available resources

ballpark

Does this operation only have ballpark accuracy

number_grids

The number of grids required for the operation

The object has a "grids" attribute containing a nested list of grids for each coordinate operations found; if number_grids == 0, NULL, otherwise a list of grids. For each grid required, the short and long names of the grid are given, the package name if available in a PROJ grid package, and the download URL for that package. Three logical variables report whether the grid may be downloaded directly, whether it has an open license, and whether it is available.

Note

Fragile: work in progress

Make a data frame of EPSG projection codes

Description

Make a data frame of the European Petroleum Survey Group (EPSG) geodetic parameter dataset as distributed with PROJ.4 software (prior to PROJ 6.0.0, March 2019, only the CSV file, from March 2019 with PROJ >= 6 from the SQLite database). Because finding the correct projection specification is not easy, lists still known as EPSG lists are maintained, and more generally retrieved from databases. The data collated here are as distributed with PROJ.4.

Usage

make_EPSG(file)
EPSG_version()

Arguments

file

file name of the file matching EPSG codes and PROJ.4 arguments, should usually be autodetected; not used for PROJ >= 6

Value

returns a data frame with columns:

code

integer column of EPSG code numbers

note

character column of notes as included in the file

prj4

character column of PROJ.4 arguments for the equivalent projection definitions

prj_method

extra character column from PROJ 6 showing the projection method

...

List PROJ.4 tag information

Description

The projInfo function lists known values and descriptions for PROJ.4 tags for tag in c("proj", "ellps", "datum", "units"); getPROJ4VersionInfo returns the version of the underlying PROJ.4 release, getPROJ4libPath returns the value of the PROJ_LIB environment variable, projNAD detects the presence of NAD datum conversion tables (looking for conus).

Usage

projInfo(type = "proj")
getPROJ4VersionInfo()
getPROJ4libPath()
projNAD()
GDAL_OSR_PROJ()
GDALis3ormore()
PROJis6ormore()
new_proj_and_gdal()

Arguments

type

One of these tags: c("proj", "ellps", "datum", "units")

Details

The output data frame lists the information given by the proj application with flags -lp, -le, -ld or -lu. From PROJ 6, "datum" is not available. From PROJ 7.1.0, "units" returns the conversion factor as numeric, not character.

Value

A data frame with a name and description column, and two extra columns for the "ellps" and "datum" tags.

Note

Loading the rgdal package may change the PROJ_LIB environmental variable to the PROJ.4 support files if bundled with binary packages.

GDALcall(object, option, ...)
rawTransform(projfrom, projto, n, x, y, z=NULL, wkt=FALSE)

Arguments

xy

2-column matrix of coordinates

proj

character string of projection arguments; the arguments must be entered exactly as in the PROJ.4 documentation, in particular there cannot be any white space in +<arg>=<value> strings, and successive such strings can only be separated by blanks.

inv

default FALSE, if TRUE inverse projection to geographical coordinates

use_ob_tran

default FALSE, if TRUE and “+proj=ob_tran”, use General Oblique Transformation with internalised from/to projection reversal; the user oblique transforms forward rather than inverse.

legacy

default TRUE, if FALSE, use transform C functions (enforced internally for Windows 32-bit platforms)

allowNAs_if_not_legacy

used if legacy is FALSE, default FALSE; introduced to handle use of NAs as object separators in oce

coordOp

default NULL, for PROJ >= 6 used to pass through a pre-defined coordinate operation

verbose

default FALSE, for PROJ >=6 used to show the coordinate operation used

use_aoi

With PROJ >= 6, use the area of interest defined as the range of xy in limiting the search for candidate coordinate operations; set FALSE if use_ob_tran is TRUE

fname

file name of grid map; in create2GDAL provides a way to pass through a file name with driver-required extension for sensitive drivers

x

A GDALReadOnlyDataset object

offset

Number of rows and columns from the origin (usually the upper left corner) to begin reading from; presently ordered (y,x) - this may change

region.dim

The number of rows and columns to read from the dataset; presently ordered (y,x) - this may change

output.dim

The number of rows and columns to return in the created object using GDAL's method to take care of image decimation / replication; presently ordered (y,x) - this may change

band

if missing, all bands are read

p4s

PROJ4 string defining CRS, if default (NULL), the value is read from the GDAL data set

half.cell

Used to adjust the intra-cell offset from corner to centre, usually as default, but may be set to c=(0,0) if needed; presently ordered (y,x) - this may change

silent

logical; if TRUE, comment and non-fatal CPL driver errors suppressed

OVERRIDE_PROJ_DATUM_WITH_TOWGS84

logical value, default NULL, which case the cached option set by set_OVERRIDE_PROJ_DATUM_WITH_TOWGS84 is used. Ignored if the GDAL version is less than “1.8.0” or if the CPLConfigOption variable is already set; see getProjectionRef for further details

allowedDrivers

a character vector of suggested driver short names may be provided starting from GDAL 2.0

...

arguments passed to either getRasterData, or getRasterTable, depending on rotation angles (see below); see the rgdal documentation for the available options (subsetting etc.)

dataset

object of class SpatialGridDataFrame-class or SpatialPixelsDataFrame-class

drivername, copy_drivername

GDAL driver name; if the chosen driver does not support dataset creation, an attempt is made to use the copy_drivername driver to create a dataset, and copyDatset to copy to the target driver

type

GDAL write data type, one of: ‘Byte’, ‘Int16’, ‘Int32’, ‘Float32’, ‘Float64’; ‘UInt16’, ‘UInt32’ are available but have not been tests

mvFlag

default NA, missing value flag for output file; the default value works for ‘Int32’, ‘Float32’, ‘Float64’, but suitable in-range value that fits the data type should be used for other data types, for example 255 for ‘Byte’, -32768 for ‘Int16’, and so on; see Details below.

enforce_xy

(PROJ6+/GDAL3+) either use global setting (default NULL) or override policy for coordinate ordering easting/x as first axis, northing/y as second axis.

options

driver-specific options to be passed to the GDAL driver; only available for opening datasets from GDAL 2.0; see copying and creation details below

setStatistics

default FALSE, if TRUE, attempt to set per-band statistics in the output file (driver-dependent)

colorTables

default NULL, if not NULL, a list of length equal to the number of bands, with NULL components for bands with no color table, or either an integer matrix of red, green, blue and alpha values (0-255), or a character vector of colours. The number of colours permitted may vary with driver.

catNames

default NULL, if not NULL, a list of length equal to the number of bands, with NULL components for bands with no category names, or a string vector of category names

returnRAT

default FALSE, if TRUE, return a list with a Raster Attribute Table or NULL for each band

returnCategoryNames

default FALSE, if TRUE, return a list with a character vector of CategoryNames or NULL for each band

returnStats

default TRUE, return band-wise statistics if avaliable (from 0.7-20 set to NA if not available)

returnColorTable

default FALSE; if TRUE return band-wise colour tables in a list attribute “ColorTables”

returnScaleOffset

default TRUE, return a matrix of bandwise scales and offsets

dsn

data source name (interpretation varies by driver — for some drivers, dsn is a file name, but may also be a folder)

layer

layer name (varies by driver, may be a file name without extension). From rgdal 1.2.*, layer may be missing, in which case ogrListLayers examines the dsn, and fails if there are no layers, silently reads the only layer if only one layer is found, and reads the first layer if multiple layers are present, issuing a warning that layer should be given explicitly.

stringsAsFactors

logical: should character vectors be converted to factors? Default NA, which uses the deprecated default.stringsAsFactors() in R < 4.1.0 (see link[base]{data.frame}). Before R 4, strings were converted to factors by default, as argument value TRUE. See https://developer.r-project.org/Blog/public/2020/02/16/stringsasfactors/index.html for details of changes.

drop_unsupported_fields

default FALSE, if TRUE skip fields other than String, Integer, and Real; Date, Time and DateTime are converted to String

pointDropZ

default FALSE, if TRUE, discard third coordinates for point geometries; third coordinates are alway discarded for line and polygon geometries

dropNULLGeometries

default TRUE, drop both declared NULL geometries, and empty geometries with no coordinates; if FALSE, return a data frame with the attribute values of the NULL and empty geometries. From 1.3-6, setting FALSE also works when there are no geometries at all, returning a data.frame including all FIDs

useC

default TRUE, if FALSE use original interpreted code in a loop

disambiguateFIDs

default FALSE, if TRUE, and FID values are not unique, they will be set to unique values 1:N for N features; problem observed in GML files

addCommentsToPolygons

default TRUE, may be set FALSE for legacy behaviour; used to indicate which interior rings are holes in which exterior rings in conformance with OGC SFS specifications

encoding

default NULL, if set to a character string, and the driver is “ESRI Shapefile”, and use_iconv is FALSE, it is passed to the CPL Option “SHAPE_ENCODING” immediately before reading the DBF of a shapefile. If use_iconv is TRUE, and encoding is not NULL, it will be used to convert input strings from the given value to the native encoding for the system/platform.

use_iconv

default FALSE; if TRUE and encoding is not NULL, it will be used to convert input strings from the given value to the native encoding for the system/platform.

swapAxisOrder

default FALSE, if TRUE, treat y coordinate as Easting, x as Northing, that is the opposite to the assumed order; this may be needed if some OGR read drivers do not behave as expected

require_geomType

, default NULL, if one of: c("wkbPoint", "wkbLineString", "wkbPolygon"), then in input with multiple geometry types, the chosen type will be read

integer64

default “no.loss” (from rgdal 1.2.*). From GDAL 2, fields to be read may also take Integer64 values. As R has no such storage mode, three options are offered, analogous with type.convert for numeric conversion: “allow.loss” which clamps to 32-bit signed integer (default < rgdal 1.2), “warn.loss” - as “allow.loss” but warns when clamping occurs, and “no.loss”, which reads as a character string using the formatting applied by default by GDAL (default >= rgdal 1.2). The use of 64-bit integers is usually a misunderstanding, as such data is almost always a long key ID.

GDAL1_integer64_policy

default FALSE, if TRUE, Integer64 fields are read as doubles

morphFromESRI

default NULL, morph from ESRI WKT1 dialect

dumpSRS

dump SRS to stdout from inside GDAL to debug conversion - developer use only

get_source_if_boundcrs

The presence of the +towgs84= key in a Proj4 string projargs= argument value may promote the output WKT2 CRS to BOUNDCRS for PROJ >= 6 and GDAL >= 3, which is a coordinate operation from the input datum to WGS84. This is often unfortunate, so a PROJ function is called through rgdal to retrieve the underlying source definition.

D3_if_2D3D_points

https://github.com/r-spatial/sf/issues/1683 case of mixed 2D/3D track points - set TRUE to 3D to pass

missing_3D

default 0, may be finite real numbers; https://github.com/r-spatial/sf/issues/1683

driver

default NULL, driver found using ogrListLayers from the data source; otherwise already known and passed through from a calling function

obj

a SpatialPointsDataFrame, SpatialLinesDataFrame, or a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame object.

dataset_options

a character vector of options, which vary by driver, and should be treated as experimental

layer_options

a character vector of options, which vary by driver, and should be treated as experimental

check_exists

default NULL, which tests for the GDAL version, and sets FALSE if < 1.8.0, or TRUE for >= 1.8.0

overwrite_layer

default FALSE, if TRUE and check_exists=TRUE, delete the existing layer of the same name from the data source before writing the new layer; this will delete data and must be used with extreme caution, its behaviour varies between drivers, and accommodates changes that may appear in GDAL 1.8

delete_dsn

default FALSE, may be set to TRUE if overwrite_layer reports that the data source cannot be updated; this will delete data and must be used with extreme caution, its behaviour varies between drivers, and accommodates changes that may appear in GDAL 1.8

morphToESRI

default NULL, in which case set TRUE if driver is “ESRI Shapefile” or FALSE otherwise; may be used to override this default

shp_edge_case_fix

default FALSE, if TRUE, attempt to work around MULTIPOLYGON to POLYGON degradation in ESRI Shapefile output with two touching exterior rings in a single feature (not yet implemented).

uprojargs

character string PROJ.4 projection arguments

file

if not NULL, a file name to which the output Well-Known Text representation should be written

ConfigOption

CPL configure option documented in https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/ConfigOptions and elsewhere in GDAL source code

value

a string value to set a CPL option; NULL is used to unset the CPL option

object

GDALTransientDataset (option = 'SetGeoTransform', 'SetProject') or GDALRasterBand (the other options)

option

character. One of 'SetGeoTransform', 'SetProject', 'SetNoDataValue', 'SetStatistics', 'SetRasterColorTable' or 'SetCategoryNames')

projfrom

character. PROJ.4 coordinate reference system (CRS) description

projto

character. PROJ.4 CRS description

n

number of coordinates

y

y coordinates

z

z coordinates

wkt

default FALSE, if TRUE, the caller determines that projfrom and projto are wkt and that new_proj_and_gdal() returns TRUE to avoid multiple warnings when the function is called repetitively

Examples

Convert RGB three band to single band colour table

Description

This function converts a three-band SpatialGridDataFrame into a single band of colour indices and a colour look-up table using RGB2PCT. vec2RGB uses given breaks and colours (like image) to make a three column matrix of red, green, and blue values for a numeric vector.

Usage

SGDF2PCT(x, ncolors = 256, adjust.bands=TRUE)
vec2RGB(vec, breaks, col)

Arguments

x

a three-band SpatialGridDataFrame object

ncolors

a number of colours between 2 and 256

adjust.bands

default TRUE; if FALSE the three bands must lie each between 0 and 255, but will not be streched within those bounds

vec

a numeric vector

breaks

a set of breakpoints for the colours: must give one more breakpoint than colour

col

a list of colors

Value

The value returned is a list:

idx

a vector of colour indices in the same spatial order as the input object

ct

a vector of RGB colours

Show Well-Known Text spatial reference system metadata

Description

In modern workflows with PROJ >= 6 and GDAL >= 3, use only showSRID() DEPRECATED: Use GDAL/OGR spatial reference objects to convert a PROJ.4 representation to a Well-Known Text representation, and report an EPSG code if it can be determined by OGR SRS services.

Usage

showP4(wkt, morphFromESRI=FALSE, enforce_xy = NULL)
showSRID(inSRID, format="WKT2", multiline="NO", enforce_xy = NULL, EPSG_to_init=TRUE,
 prefer_proj=NULL)
get_P6_datum_hard_fail()
set_P6_datum_hard_fail(value)
get_thin_PROJ6_warnings()
set_thin_PROJ6_warnings(value)
get_prefer_proj()
set_prefer_proj(value)
get_rgdal_show_exportToProj4_warnings()
set_rgdal_show_exportToProj4_warnings(value)
get_PROJ6_warnings_count()
OSRIsProjected(obj)

Arguments

enforce_xy

(PROJ6+/GDAL3+) either use global setting (default NULL) or override policy for coordinate ordering easting/x as first axis, northing/y as second axis.

wkt

A valid WKT character string representing a spatial reference system

morphFromESRI

default TRUE, morph the WKT string from the representation used by ESRI

inSRID

Input coordinate reference string

obj

valid CRS object

format

Output format, default WKT2

multiline

Multiline output, either "NO" or "YES"

EPSG_to_init

default TRUE, workaround for PROJ 6.3.0 frailty leading to the dropping of +ellps= and +units=; DATUM seems to disappear in the internal definition

prefer_proj

default NULL, if TRUE, use PROJ compiled code directly, rather than FALSE using PROJ via GDAL SRS; if NULL, uses value shown by get_prefer_proj() set on startup to TRUE.

value

a logical value. For set_P6_datum_hard_fail(): by default, a deprecated/ignored input DATUM key/value pair on reading a file with PROJ6 will give a warning (default FALSE); if TRUE, an error is triggered, which may be trapped using try. For set_thin_PROJ6_warnings() default FALSE, can be set to TRUE to report only once and count the number of non-issues warnings, retrieved by get_PROJ6_warnings_count(). For set_rgdal_show_exportToProj4_warnings(), default in rgdal version 1.5.* TRUE, from 1.6 FALSE. The options("rgdal_show_exportToProj4_warnings"="x") may be used before loading rgdal to set the internal logical variables; if the option is set to "all", all warnings reporting CRS degradation stemming from the GDAL OSR function exportToProj4() even if trivial are reported; if set to "thin", all warnings are detected but thinned so that one report is given per function call; if set to "none", the degradations are detected but not reported.

Value

For showWKT, a character string containing the WKT representation of the PROJ.4 string.

Note

The options("rgdal_show_exportToProj4_warnings"="x") may be used before loading rgdal to set the internal logical variables; if the option is set to "all", all warnings reporting CRS degradation stemming from the GDAL OSR function exportToProj4() even if trivial are reported; if set to "thin", all warnings are detected but thinned so that one report is given per function call; if set to "none", the degradations are detected but not reported.

Class "SpatialGDAL"

Description

Class for spatial attributes that have spatial locations on a (full) regular grid on file, not (yet) actually read.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'SpatialGDAL'
open(con, ..., silent = FALSE, allowedDrivers = NULL, options=NULL)
## S3 method for class 'SpatialGDAL'
close(con, ...)
copy.SpatialGDAL(dataset, fname, driver = getDriver(dataset@grod),
 strict = FALSE, options = NULL, silent = FALSE)

Arguments

con

file name of grid map for opening, SpatialGDAL object for closing

...

other arguments (currently ignored)

silent

logical; if TRUE, comment and non-fatal CPL driver errors suppressed

dataset

object of class SpatialGDAL

fname

file name of grid map

driver

GDAL driver name

strict

TRUE if the copy must be strictly equivalent, or more normally FALSE indicating that the copy may adapt as needed for the output format

allowedDrivers

a character vector of suggested driver short names may be provided starting from GDAL 2.0

options

driver-specific options to be passed to the GDAL driver; only available for opening datasets from GDAL 2.0

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form open. SpatialGDAL(name), , where name is the name of the GDAL file.

Slots

points:

see SpatialPoints; points slot which is not actually filled with all coordinates (only with min/max)

grid:

see GridTopology-class; grid parameters

grid.index:

see SpatialPixels-class; this slot is of zero length for this class, as the grid is full

bbox:

Object of class "matrix"; bounding box

proj4string:

Object of class "CRS"; projection

data:

Object of class data.frame, containing attribute data

Extends

Class Spatial-class, directly.

Methods

[

signature(x = "SpatialGDAL", i, j, ...): selects rows (i), columns (j), and bands (third argument); returns an object of class SpatialGridDataFrame-class. Only the selection is actually read.

[[

signature(i): reads band i and returns the values as a numeric vector

Note

Non-fatal CPL errors may be displayed for some drivers, currently for the AIG ArcInfo 9.3 binary raster driver using GDAL >= 1.6.2; the data has been read correctly, but the contents of the info directory did not meet the specifications used to reverse engineer the driver used in GDAL (see https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/3031)

Methods for Function spTransform for map projection and datum transformation in package "rgdal"

Description

The spTransform methods provide transformation between datum(s) and conversion between projections (also known as projection and/or re-projection), from one unambiguously specified coordinate reference system (CRS) to another, prior to version 1.5 using Proj4 projection arguments. From version 1.5, Well-Known Text 2 (WKT2 2019) strings are used. For simple projection, when no Proj4 +datum tags are used, datum projection does not occur. When datum transformation is required, the datum should be defined with a valid value both in the CRS of the object to be transformed, and in the target CRS. In general datum is to be prefered to ellipsoid, because the datum always fixes the ellipsoid, but the ellipsoid never fixes the datum.

In addition, before version 1.5 the +towgs84 tag should have been used where needed to make sure that datum transformation would take place. Parameters for +towgs84 were taken from the legacy bundled EPSG file if they are known unequivocally, but could be entered manually from known authorities. Not providing the appropriate +datum and +towgs84 tags led to coordinates being out by hundreds of metres. Unfortunately, there is no easy way to provide this information: the user has to know the correct metadata for the data being used, even if this can be hard to discover.

From version 1.5, spTransform uses the modern PROJ coordinate operation framework for transformations. This avoids pivoting through WGS84 if possible, and uses WKT2 (2019) strings for source and target CRS often constructed from the bundled EPSG SQLite database. The database is searched for feasible candidate coordinate operations, and the most accurate available is chosen. More details are available in a vignette: vignette("CRS_projections_transformations").

Usage

get_transform_wkt_comment()
set_transform_wkt_comment(value)
get_enforce_xy()
set_enforce_xy(value)
get_last_coordOp()

Arguments

value

A non-NA logical value

Methods

"ANY"

default void method

"SpatialPoints", CRSobj = CRS

returns transformed coordinates of an "SpatialPoints" object using the projection arguments in "CRSobj", of class CRS

"SpatialPointsDataFrame", CRSobj = CRS

returns transformed coordinates of an "SpatialPointsDataFrame" object using the projection arguments in "CRSobj", of class CRS

"SpatialLines", CRSobj = CRS

returns transformed coordinates of an "SpatialLines" object using the projection arguments in "CRSobj", of class CRS

"SpatialLinesDataFrame", CRSobj = CRS

returns transformed coordinates of an "SpatialLinesDataFrame" object using the projection arguments in "CRSobj", of class CRS

"SpatialPolygons", CRSobj = CRS

returns transformed coordinates of an "SpatialPolygons" object using the projection arguments in "CRSobj", of class CRS

"SpatialPolygonsDataFrame", CRSobj = CRS

returns transformed coordinates of an "SpatialPolygonsDataFrame" object using the projection arguments in "CRSobj", of class CRS

"SpatialPixelsDataFrame", CRSobj = CRS

Because regular grids will usually not be regular after projection/datum transformation, the input object is coerced to a SpatialPointsDataFrame, and the transformation carried out on that object. A warning: “Grid warping not available, coercing to points” is given.

"SpatialGridDataFrame", CRSobj = CRS

Because regular grids will usually not be regular after projection/datum transformation, the input object is coerced to a SpatialPointsDataFrame, and the transformation carried out on that object. A warning: “Grid warping not available, coercing to points” is given.

Note

The projection arguments had to be entered exactly as in the PROJ.4 documentation, in particular there cannot be any white space in +<arg>=<value> strings, and successive such strings can only be separated by blanks. Note that warnings about different projections may be issued when the PROJ.4 library extends projection arguments; examine the warning to see if the differences are real.

Also note that re-projection and/or datum transformation will usually not work for regular grids. The term used for similar operations for regular grids is warping, which involved resampling to a regular grid in the target coordinate reference system.

The methods may take an optional argument “use_ob_tran”, default FALSE, if TRUE and “+proj=ob_tran”, use General Oblique Transformation with internalised from/to projection reversal (the user oblique transforms from longlat to oblique forward rather than inverse as suggested in PROJ.4 mailing list postings); these changes are intended to meet a need pointed out by Martin Ivanov (2012-08-15). A subsequent point raised by Martin Ivanov (2017-04-28) was that use of a projected CRS with “+proj=ob_tran” led to errors, so mixing projected CRS and “+proj=ob_tran” is blocked. Transform first “+proj=ob_tran” to or from “+proj=longlat”, and then on from geographical coordinates to those desired or the reverse - see example.

If a SpatialPoints object has three dimensions, the third will also be transformed, with the metric of the third dimension assumed to be meters if the vertical units metric is not given in the projection description with +vunits= or +vto_meter= (which is 1.0 by default) https://proj.org/faq.html.

Note that WGS84 is both an ellipse and a datum, and that since 1984 there have been changes in the relative positions of continents, leading to a number of modifications. This is discussed for example in https://www.uvm.edu/giv/resources/WGS84_NAD83.pdf; there are then multiple transformations between NAD83 and WGS84 depending on the WGS84 definition used. One would expect that “+towgs84=” is a no-op for WGS84, but this only applies sometimes, and as there are now at least 30 years between now and 1984, things have shifted. It may be useful to note that “+nadgrids=@null” can help, see these threads: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-geo/2014-August/021611.html, http://lists.maptools.org/pipermail/proj/2014-August/006894.html, with thanks to Hermann Peifer for assistance.

Note that from PROJ.4 4.9.3, the definition of UTM is changed from TMERC to ETMERC; see example.
