bind: Bind Spatial* objects

In raster: Geographic Data Analysis and Modeling

Bind Spatial* objects

Description

Bind (append) Spatial* objects into a single object. All objects must be of the same vector type base class (SpatialPoints, SpatialLines, or SpatialPolygons)

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'SpatialPolygons,SpatialPolygons'
bind(x, y, ..., keepnames=FALSE)

## S4 method for signature 'SpatialLines,SpatialLines'
bind(x, y, ..., keepnames=FALSE)

## S4 method for signature 'SpatialPoints,SpatialPoints'
bind(x, y, ..., keepnames=FALSE)

## S4 method for signature 'data.frame,data.frame'
bind(x, y, ..., variables=NULL)

## S4 method for signature 'list,missing'
bind(x, y, ..., keepnames=FALSE)

Arguments

x	Spatial* object or data.frame, or a list of Spatial* objects
y	Spatial* object or data.frame, or missing
...	Additional Spatial* objects
keepnames	Logical. If TRUE the row.names are kept (if unique)
variables	character. Variable (column) names to keep, If NULL, all variables are kept

Value

Spatial* object
