drawing a polygon from several lines

Fri, Aug 24, 2018 6:15 AM

Dear colleagues

I finally could select the squares (cells) under the polygon. I extract the
points from the selected isobaths that fell within lat / lon limits and
with them I created a spatial polygon.

Bellow I share the script I wrote. Considering that I don't know much about
mapping in R, I would appreciate to hear suggestions to improve the code.

Best regards.
