Export SpatialPolygons object as S-Plus map for WinBUGS
The function exports an sp SpatialPolygons object into a S-Plus map format to be import by WinBUGS.
sp2WB(map, filename, Xscale = 1, Yscale = Xscale, plotorder = FALSE)
map |
a SpatialPolygons object |
filename |
file where output is written |
Xscale, Yscale |
scales to be written in the output file |
plotorder |
default=FALSE, if TRUE, export polygons in plotting order |
