Thanks Simon. I have other vectors in the CSV file so after naming my latitude and longitude x and y, I tried this. The first two lines run fine but I get error in the second line.
r <- raster(as.matrix(F1)) extent(r) <- extent(xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax) F1<-data.frame(x, y,z) Error in function (classes, fdef, mtable) : unable to find an inherited method for function "extent", for signature "stand Thankyou.
