[R-sig-Geo] focal analysis on raster

[Stratford, Jeff]

Hi everyone,

I am looking to estimate the number of pixels to quantify different
landuses around sampling points for different projects (bird diversity,
nests, predation rates on clay caterpillars, etc). Our base map is a
Landsat 7 map.

I can plot our sample points and plot the Landsat map (using raster) but
I'm not sure

1. How to overlay the sample points onto the Landsat map
2. How to do the focal analysis using the sample points as centers in
circular buffers of 200 and 1000 m radii

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

Jeff
