In my opinion, a 2GB shape file is insane.... Is the attribute table (.dbf) file as big or is it the shp? If it is the .dbf, you have to look if you need all attributes. If it is the .shp, you could possibly split the shaope file in more then one actual layer? Also, import into a SpatiaLite or even PostGIS database might help you - then you can easier import a subset of features. Cheers, Rainer
using readShapePoly() in spdep as well as the readOGR() in rgdal with no luck.,
Using the readShapePoly(), I get:, ?failed on DBF filefseek? on a series of lines (over
284,000),
When using rgdal, I get this:
Warning message:, In readOGR(".", "nameoffiles") :, Deleted feature IDs: 284284, 284285,

In other words, I only get half of the data imported into R and need to get all of it in.
Thank you,
