Hi I'm trying to analyse some data and need to set the geographic coordinate system before I can do the analysis. I've been trying to use the project command in rgdal but keep getting an error message saying:
Error in project(locationsMatrix, PROJECTION.OUT) : latitude or longitude exceeded limits ( PROJECTION.OUT <- "+proj=aea +lat_1=-18 +lat_2=-36 +lat_0=0 +lon_0=132 +x_0=0 +y_0=0 +ellps=GRS80 +towgs84=0,0,0,0,0,0,0 +units=m +no_defs") I know that I'm using the right proj4 format (got it from the espy file in the Proj4 data directory) and I know that the datum is correct as I often use it in GIS (GDA94; Australia Albers). Before using the project command I have a series of commands to make my raw input (a csv file) into a matrix with only the two columns of co-ordinates. There doesn't seem to be any problem in the matrix either. I'm really confused as to what the problem could be. I've used this command successfully for other datasets.
