Test points for inclusion in a polygon

Test points for inclusion in a polygon.

inout(pts,poly,bound=NULL,quiet=TRUE)

Arguments

pts

A points data set

poly

A polygon data set

bound

If points fall exactly on polygon boundaries, the default NULL gives arbitrary assignments. If TRUE, then all points "on" boundaries are set as within the polygon, if FALSE, outside.

quiet

Do not report which points are on boundary for non-NULL bound

Value

A vector of logical values. TRUE means the point was inside the polygon, FALSE means the point was outside. Note that "inside" is an arbitrary concept for points "on" the polygon boundary.
