Hello everyone,

This is my first post but I really need help and think R could be the way to
go.  I have a question regarding R and finding the most "points" in a
certain area.  I am looking at various places that have a certain point
value associated to each place.  The data I will be reading in looks like:

Latitude1 Longitude1 Points1
Latitude2 Longitude2 Points2
Latitude3 Longitude3 Points3
etc.

What I want to do is have an R script run that looks in a "x" mile radius
and calculates the total points.  Then I want to be able to find the center
of the "x" mile radius for the circle with the most points.  

I am so lost on this that I'm sure I haven't even explained what I want to
do very well.  Please let me know if I can clarify anything and PLEASE help
me.  Thank you!!
