Description

A line file for the haul road through Cape Krusenstern National Monument, Alaska, USA, with object type sf.

Usage

data(haulRoad)

Format

A sf object. The projection is in Alaska Albers, EPSG:3338.

Shapefile provided by Peter Neitlich of the National Park Service. The file was developed for the publication below.

Imported to R with the rgdal package as a SpatialLines object from package sp. The code that creates the data file from the raw data can be found at system.file("raw data/mossHeavyMetals/create_haulRoad.R",package = "ZVHdata"). It was subsequently converted to sf using st_as_sf function.
