wkb_coords: Extract coordinates from well-known geometries

In wkutils: Utilities for Well-Known Geometry Vectors

Extract coordinates from well-known geometries

Description

These functions are optimised for graphics output, which in R require flat coordinate structures. See graphics::points(), graphics::lines(), and graphics::polypath() for how to send these to a graphics device, or grid::pointsGrob(), grid::linesGrob(), and grid::pathGrob() for how to create graphical objects using this output.

Usage

wkb_coords(wkb, sep_na = FALSE)

wkt_coords(wkt, sep_na = FALSE)

Arguments

wkb	A list() of raw() vectors, such as that returned by sf::st_as_binary().
sep_na	Use TRUE to separate geometries and linear rings with a row of NAs. This is useful for generating output that can be fed directly to graphics::polypath() or graphics::lines() without modification.
wkt	A character vector containing well-known text.

Value

A data.frame with columns:

• feature_id: The index of the top-level feature

• part_id: The part identifier, guaranteed to be unique for every simple geometry (including those contained within a multi-geometry or collection)

• ring_id: The ring identifier, guaranteed to be unique for every ring.

• x, y, z, m: Coordinaate values (both absence and nan are recorded as NA)

Examples

text <- c("LINESTRING (0 1, 19 27)", "LINESTRING (-1 -1, 4 10)")
wkt_coords(text)
wkt_coords(text, sep_na = TRUE)
