inpip: Select points inside a polygon

In splancs: Spatial and Space-Time Point Pattern Analysis

Select points inside a polygon

Description

Select points inside a polygon

Usage

inpip(pts,poly,bound=NULL,quiet=TRUE)

Arguments

pts	A points data set
poly	A polygon data set
bound	If points fall exactly on polygon boundaries, the default NULL gives arbitrary assignments. If TRUE, then all points "on" boundaries are set as within the polygon, if FALSE, outside.
quiet	Do not report which points are on boundary for non-NULL bound

Value

inpip returns a vector of indices of the points in pts that are located in the polygon. Note that "in" is an arbitrary concept for points "on" the polygon boundary.
