Select points inside a polygon
Description
Select points inside a polygon
Usage
inpip(pts,poly,bound=NULL,quiet=TRUE)
Arguments
pts |
A points data set |
poly |
A polygon data set |
bound |
If points fall exactly on polygon boundaries, the default NULL gives arbitrary assignments. If TRUE, then all points "on" boundaries are set as within the polygon, if FALSE, outside. |
quiet |
Do not report which points are on boundary for non-NULL bound |
Value
inpip
returns a vector of indices of the points in pts
that are located
in the polygon. Note that "in" is an arbitrary concept for points "on" the polygon boundary.
