Thanks Simon. I have other vectors in the CSV file so after naming my latitude and longitude x and y, I tried this. The first two lines run fine but I get error in the second line. r <- raster(as.matrix(F1)) extent(r) <- extent(xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax) F1<-data.frame(x, y,z) Error in function (cl

provided you get the call to read.table (or perhaps read.csv) right and presuming that file contains only the image data, you should be able to say: r <- raster(as.matrix(read.csv("file.csv"))) extent(r) <- extent(xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax) and not worry about the projection (if it is plain old deci
