write_gpx

R Documentation

Function to export geometries as a GPX file.

Description

write_gpx uses rgdal::writeOGR as the GPX writer. GPX files do not support polygons, therefore polygon geometries will be coerced to lines.

Usage

write_gpx(sp, file, force = TRUE)

Arguments

`sp`	Spatial object.
`file`	File name of GPX file.
`force`	Should the projection be forced to WGS84? Default is `TRUE` because this is the standard for GPX files.

Value

Invisible.
