[R-sig-Geo] Integrating R and Arcgis

[Tom Philippi]

You may want to look at GME, Geospatial Modeling Environment,
Hawthorne Bayer's successor to Hawth's Tools.  It allows you to run
your own arbitrary R code from within ArcMap, as well as providing
simple function wrappers for several common tasks.  One potential
issue is that it uses statconnDCOM, which is not licensed for all
uses.

I have ended up doing almost nothing in ArcMap: the tools in the sp,
rgdal, raster, and gbclib packages do everything I need, and  in most
cases are substantially faster than even python & ESRI geoprocessing
tools.  YMMV.
