st_point: Create points

In etiennebr/geotidy: Tidy manipulation of spatial data

Description

Create points from coordinates. st_point is simply a wrapper around st_makepoint.

Usage

st_makepoint(x, y)

st_point(x, y)

Arguments

x	Numeric vector of x coordinates (e.g. longitude) or a list of pairs of coordinates. In the latter case y can be missing.
y	Numeric vector of y coordinates (e.g. latitude).

Details

x amd y must be of the same length. If one of the coordiantes are missing, it creates and empty point geometry.

Value

List column of points with the same length than x and y.
