[R-sig-Geo] Importing ESRI Shapefile into RSAGA

[Tomislav Hengl]

Jonas,

SAGA (GUI) can read and write shape files. This is the native vector format it uses. Maybe this is
confusing, but RSAGA is NOT a GIS package under R, but only a link to send things from R to SAGA and
back.

Here are some examples:
