Hello, sorry maybe a newbie question but how can I set the user path for the use of the readGPS() in maptools? I want to import obviously gpx data... any other tips how to do that quick and easy? I am using eclipse with the statet plugin for my r scripting on windows 7 (if that makes an difference) thanks a lot MSc.

It may be easier to download the *.gpx file from the device using other software, and use readOGR() with the GPX driver from the rgdal package. Path variables etc., tend to be difficult when R is buried under other software. Roger
