The s2 R package provides bindings to Google’s S2Geometry library. The package exposes
an API similar to Google’s BigQuery
Geography API, whose functions also operate on spherical geometries.
Package sf uses this
package by default for nearly all its geometrical operations on objects
with ellipsoidal (unprojected) coordinates; in cases where it doesn’t,
such as st_relate(), it emits a warning.
This package is a complete rewrite of an earlier CRAN package s2 with versions up to 0.4-2, for which the sources are found here.
You can install the released version of s2 from CRAN with:
install.packages("s2")And the development version from GitHub with:
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("r-spatial/s2")The s2 package provides geometry transformers and predicates similar to those found in GEOS, except instead of assuming a planar geometry, s2’s functions work in latitude and longitude and assume a spherical geometry:
library(s2)
s2_contains(
# polygon containing much of the northern hemisphere
"POLYGON ((-63.5 44.6, -149.75 61.20, 116.4 40.2, 13.5 52.51, -63.5 44.6))",
# ...should contain the north pole
"POINT (0 90)"
)
#> [1] TRUEThe sf package uses s2
for geographic coordinates with sf::sf_use_s2(TRUE), and
will become the default after sf version 1.0.0. The sf package also
supports creating s2 vectors using as_s2_geography():
library(dplyr)
library(sf)
nc_s2 <- read_sf(system.file("shape/nc.shp", package = "sf")) %>%
mutate(geometry = as_s2_geography(geometry)) %>%
as_tibble() %>%
