[R] About the unit of shapefile and raster

[Xijia Liu]

Dear Roger,

I want to make a raster for my shapefile. I am try to apply function "rasterize". However I get a problem of the unit of plot.

If I make a plot for my shapefile, then the unit is "degree". However, when I apply raster() and make a plot for it, the unit is not "degree". Please see the two plots I attached. I do not know if there is any problem... Is it due to the proj4string? And how to fix it?

Many thanks for your time!

Best regads
