I'm new to the world of spatial analyses in R.  I've done some searching
and reading around, but haven't found answer to my question.  I may not be
looking in the correct place.

I have a series of references lat/long pairs (listA) that I'd like to
import into R and have R create a 200m buffer around these points.  I'd
then like to bring in a second list (listB) of lat/long pairs that may or
may not correpond with the reference points and use the over() function to
find out if listB falls within 200m of listA.

I'm guessing that the work flow would be to bring in listA, somehow draw
the buffer around the points, and export it as a shapefile, THEN bring in
listB and run the over() function.

Is this a logical process and can it even be done?

Thanks for your help -
