I've been struggling for half a day on what should be a simple problem... I have a data frame of lat/long coordinates that describe a region, and I want to draw a polygon around them so I can use that as a boundary (to be thrown at INLA, but those details aren't important). The coordinates are almost on a regular grid: there is some variation in latitude (because we're on a globe).
If the coordinates were on a regular grid, I could use as.owin() to create a mask, and go on from there (I have code that will work). But as.owin() doesn't like unevenly spaced points. Can anyone suggest a way to sort this out? Preferable without having to mess around transforming the coordinates.
