HI,
Just for dissolving I use the rgeos package with "gUnaryUnion".
But I get this error :" No UnaryUnion in this version of GEOS".
I remove the package and install it again but I get the same error.
Is it linked to my version of R or something else?
Thank you in advance.

Please only post plain text, HTML may carry unwanted payloads.
Please do provide the output of sessionInfo() and the messages shown on
the console when rgeos is loaded.
Most likely your platform is Linux, probably old Debian or Ubuntu, and
that your installed GEOS is version < 3.3.0; version_GEOS0() also returns
your GEOS version directly.
On the help page ?gUnaryUnion you see that you should use gUnionCascaded()
instead:
"gUnionCascaded expects a single sp object of class SpatialPolygons
with subgeometries which it unions together. gUnionCascaded can
only dissolve MultiPolygon objects, so GeometryCollection objects
to be dissolved, here a SpatialPolygons object, must be flattened
a Polygons object; if GEOS version 3.3.0 is available, use
gUnaryUnion."
I.e. fortunes::fortune(14) applies.
Version 3.3.0 was released in May 2011, so very few users are still
suffering such old components, but in Debian, squeeze still has 3.2.0,
wheezy 3.3.3, and newer at 3.4.2 (current release).
I doubt Windows or OSX, to be honest, but if so, you've installed rgeos
from source linking to an ancient version of GEOS.
Hope this clarifies,
Roger
