Projections from the State Plane Coordinate System

Source: R/state_plane.R
state_plane.Rd

Get EPSG codes or PROJ.4 codes for projections from the State Plane Coordinate System.

Usage

state_plane(state, plane_id = NULL, type = c("epsg", "proj4"))

Arguments

state

The postal code for the state.

plane_id

The state plane geographic zone identifier. A NULL value will return a projection for the entire state.

type

The type of output to return: either an EPSG code or PROJ4 string.

Value

Either a PROJ4 string as a character vector or an EPSG code as an integer.

Examples

if (require(USAboundariesData)) {
  state_plane(state = "MA", type = "epsg")
  state_plane(state = "MA", type = "proj4")
  state_plane(state = "MA", plane_id = "island", type = "epsg")
  state_plane(state = "MA", plane_id = "island", type = "proj4")

  # Show the difference made by a state plane projection
  if (require(sf)) {
    va <- us_states(states = "VA", resolution = "high")
    plot(st_geometry(va), graticule = TRUE)
    va <- st_transform(va, state_plane("VA"))
    plot(st_geometry(va), graticule = TRUE)
  }
