[R-sig-Geo] Deal with multiple factorlevel in one grid square

[Miriam Püts]

Hi Mike, 

I will try to explain it a bit more in detail. Maybe it is easier to understand if I start from the end. In the end I would like to have an ASCII file to read into Ecospace, which has the same extensions and coordinates as other files I already created. This ASCII should contain information about the sediment type within each predefined cell. To create this ASCII file I have a shape file with the polygons representing the sediment type and my grid which I applied to other variables to have the same extend. Now I would like to create a grid containing the information on sediment. Here, per grid cell the sediment type which covers the most of the cell should be defined and connected with the coordinates for the grid cell. 

I hope this makes it more clear...

raster::extract(grid, poly, weights = TRUE) is a start. It returns a list which is painful to deal with at first, but can be collected into one data frame for standard summarizing. 

I'm still a bit confused about whether you want an estimate of a cell overlap in a polygon or something else. 

Cheers, Mike

Hi everyone, 

I have the following problem: I have a personalized grid and a shape file with polygons representing sediment types. Now I would like to apply this grid to the Polygons to identify the sediment type most common within each grid. I tried it with rasterize, but here I can only chose last or first. Die you have any suggestions how I might get the sediment type for each raster cell? 

Thank you for your help!
