Hi. I have a dataframe called radSamp which looks like this:
> head(radSamp[,c(3,4,5)]) Latitude Longitude Value 1 39.16094 140.4883 45 2 32.84428 -117.2240 47 3 35.80605 139.3789 28 4 35.07816 -106.6123 50 5 35.83174 136.2027 35 6 34.78944 137.9496 32 This is radiation data from the area around Fukushima, Japan. I want to partition this region into about 40x40 rectangles. I think that if I can create a factor f consisting of these 1600 rectangles then I can focus on what is happening in each of these rectangles by using split(radSamp$Value, f). The area I want to focus on is defined by the following 4 corners of a rectangle: ~Akita Lat = 39 degrees, 41.4 minutes North Long = 137 degrees, 10.1 minutes East East of Akita Lat = 39 degrees, 41.4 minutes North Long = 141 degrees, 57.5 minutes East ~Toyama Lat = 36 degrees, 42.2 minutes North Long = 137 degrees, 10.1 minutes East East of Toyama Lat = 36 degrees, 42.2 minutes North Long = 141 degrees, 57.5 minutes East Can anyone suggest how to create such a factor? Thank you.
