Extract coordinates from SpatialPolygonsDataFrame
I have the following code in ggplot2 for turning a SpatialPolygon into
a regular data frame of coordinates. You'll need to load ggplot2, and
then run fortify(yoursp).
fortify.SpatialPolygonsDataFrame <- function(shape, region = NULL) {
attr <- as.data.frame(shape)
# If not specified, split into regions based on first variable in attributes
if (is.null(region)) {
region <- names(attr)[1]
message("Using ", region, " to define regions.")
}
# Figure out how polygons should be split up into the region of interest
polys <- split(as.numeric(row.names(attr)), attr[, region])
cp <- polygons(shape)
# Union together all polygons that make up a region
try_require(c("gpclib", "maptools"))
unioned <- unionSpatialPolygons(cp, invert(polys))
coords <- fortify(unioned)
coords$order <- 1:nrow(coords)
coords
}
fortify.SpatialPolygons <- function(model, data, ...) {
ldply(model at polygons, fortify)
}
fortify.Polygons <- function(model, data, ...) {
subpolys <- model at Polygons
pieces <- ldply(seq_along(subpolys), function(i) {
df <- fortify(subpolys[[model at plotOrder[i]]])
df$piece <- i
df
})
within(pieces,{
order <- 1:nrow(pieces)
id <- model at ID
piece <- factor(piece)
group <- interaction(id, piece)
})
}
fortify.Polygon <- function(model, data, ...) {
df <- as.data.frame(model at coords)
names(df) <- c("long", "lat")
df$order <- 1:nrow(df)
df$hole <- model at hole
df
}
fortify.SpatialLinesDataFrame <- function(model, data, ...) {
ldply(model at lines, fortify)
}
fortify.Lines <- function(model, data, ...) {
lines <- model at Lines
pieces <- ldply(seq_along(lines), function(i) {
df <- fortify(lines[[i]])
df$piece <- i
df
})
within(pieces,{
order <- 1:nrow(pieces)
id <- model at ID
piece <- factor(piece)
group <- interaction(id, piece)
})
}
fortify.Line <- function(model, data, ...) {
df <- as.data.frame(model at coords)
names(df) <- c("long", "lat")
df$order <- 1:nrow(df)
df
}

Hi
In your case I guess you only need part 1. If there are more than 1 polygon
you would also need part 2. As far as i know there are no inbuilt functions
to extract coordinates from a SpatialPolygon.
##
#part 1
nc <- readShapePoly(system.file("shapes/sids.shp", package="maptools")[1],
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?proj4string=CRS("+proj=longlat +datum=NAD27"))
lonlat <- lapply(slot(nc, "polygons"), function(x) lapply(slot(x,
? "Polygons"), function(y) slot(y, "coords")))
#part 2
for (i in 1:dim(summary(lonlat))[1]) {
?size <- length(unlist(lapply(lapply(lonlat[i], lapply, dim), unlist)))
?if (size == 2) { res2 <- data.frame(unlist(lonlat[i], recursive=FALSE))
? ?} else lonlat.tmp <- unlist(lonlat[i], recursive=FALSE)
?if (size != 1) lonlat2 <- do.call(rbind, lapply(lonlat.tmp, data.frame))
?res2$ID <- i
?if (i == 1) lonlat3 <- lonlat2 else lonlat3 <- rbind(lonlat3, lonlat2)
}
lonlat3

Maybe this could be more efficient (part 2), but at least it works.
Best wishes

Hi there, Nestled deep within the "polygons" slot of my SpatialPolygonsDataFrame object is a list of xy coordinates I would like to extract. ?Using coordinates() only produces a single xy pair associated with the polygon (1st entry? ?Centroid?) and I cannot for the life of me manage another way, though I presume it is far from impossible. ?Could someone please direct me on this?
