reading a feature class
dd is the layer name/s, so literally I meant to use it to find what "All_lays1" really should be. (I have no experience with this format thankfully). So see for yourself what ogrListLayers reports, then the dsn for readOGR is the same, but it also wants a layer name as the second arg. (I probably need to find one of these "geodatabases" things and try for myself before I can help.) dsn is the data source (the mothership) layer is the one or more layer-thingys in that ship (shapefiles have just one layer, hence the most available example breaks the more general mould) Clear? See ?readOGR for examples

Hi Michael, It worked partially. I still have an error message

Try
ogrListLayers( dsn="C:/sophie/Allpoints/All_poly.gdb")
that should give you the right layer name/s for use with readOGR

Dear Frede,
Thanks for your reply.
This is the function that is not working
bb<-readOGR(dsn="C:/sophie/Allpoints/All_poly.gdb",layer="All_lays1")
All lays is a feature class in a file gdb(new) .
The file is not corrupted I?m able to open it on ARCIS and I?m doing the
zonal statisctics there.
I opened the rgdal library and I?m using R studio
Rgdal version 0.8-16

Hi
I don't know the gdb file format. Is it in raster or vector format?
Since you used readOGR you probably did have a look at
http://www.gdal.org/ogr_formats.html
before asking.
So there, two ESRI formats are mentioned: personal gdb (old) and file gdb
(new?).
Do you what kind of gdb file you have?
Why you can't read the file could be because of several problems.
Is the file corrupted?
What is your OS?
What version of R/rgdal?
Does the OS/R/rgdal combination involves formats for either pgdb or
filegdb?
Nobody can help you with that little information you have given us.

Emne: [R-sig-Geo] reading a feature class
Dear All,
I ?m trying ti import a feature class from a gdb to R using readOGR.
Unfortunately it is not working.
Anybody has a suggestion of a function to read it.
