I am building a mask with

Erro em owin(poly = opls) :
Polygon data contain duplicated vertices, self-intersection and overlaps
between polygons
how can I solve this problem in R?
many thanks
Basically you need to examine "area.urb.sp" carefully and amend
it so that it doesn't have duplicated vertices, self-intersection, and
overlaps.
This can be difficult, especially if the boundaries of the polygons
involved have a large number of edges.
You *could* set
spatstat.options(checkpolygons=FALSE)
but this is not advised. The "owin" object you wind up with will in
general be nonsensical. Doing this, and plotting the result might
give you some insight as to what needs to be fixed. But *do* fix
it. Don't just go with the nonsensical window. This would cause any
further analyses to yield nonsense. Garbage in, garbage out.
