Dear Gaja, If "sp" and "maptools" are not already installed, you'll need to do that. It is often recommended that you update your existing packages before installing new ones. Once that is done (or if you have already), then you just need to load the packages, and then R will be able to find the readShapeSpatial() function (it is in the 'maptools' package). Something like this should get you going:
######################## update.packages() install.packages(c("sp", "maptools")) require(sp) require(maptools) ?readShapeSpatial #documentation towns <- readShapeSpatial("OB/OB.shp") ############################ Hope that helps, Josh On Sat, Jan 1, 2011 at 1:25 PM, gaja <gajahor...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > Hello. > > I'm new on that forum, so I would use some help...
