spgrass: Interface between GRASS geographical information system and R

Description Details Author(s) Examples

Description

Interpreted interface between GRASS geographical information system, version 7, and R, based on starting R from within the GRASS environment, or on running R stand-alone and creating a throw-away GRASS environment from within R. The interface uses classes defined in the sp package to hold spatial data.
