[R-sig-Geo] Distance from coast

[Kemp, Michael]

Hello Sandeep,

Tom Hengl has some world maps on his spatial-analyst website, one of which is a 'distance-to-the-coast' map.  He also has some example script for how to handle these maps.

See...

Regards,
Michael

Subject: [R-sig-Geo] Distance from coast

Hello does anyone know of any R -script or function which will give the
value of nearest distance from coast of a point
in USA.

I have a number of latitude and longitude values spread evenly across USA
and i want to find the nearest distance from coast for

each of these points. If not a function can anyone suggest me a strong
library for geographical data manipulation.

Thanks a lot

Sandeep
