I have a points shapefile with wave shape. I wish to select only the border points to create a border owin with the same wave shape. I tryed to use convex.hull but the final shape is not the same. Some researchers have some suggestions?
I once had a similar issue when I wanted to create a hull (i.e. select only the border points) for a non-convex set of points, so-to-say. I ended up doing some approximation and also came across the alphahull package. Maybe "ahull" in that package with a suitable "alpha" parameter can help. Georg.
