Shift geometries by X and Y offsets — ddbs

Shifts (translates) geometries from a sf object or a DuckDB table. Returns the result as an sf object or creates a new table in the database. This function is equivalent to terra::shift().

Usage

ddbs_shift(
  x,
  dx = 0,
  dy = 0,
  conn = NULL,
  name = NULL,
  crs = NULL,
  crs_column = "crs_duckspatial",
  overwrite = FALSE,
  quiet = FALSE
)

Arguments

x: An sf spatial object. Alternatively, it can be a string with the name of a table with geometry column within the DuckDB database conn. Data is returned from this object.
dx: numeric value specifying the shift in the X direction (longitude/easting)
dy: numeric value specifying the shift in the Y direction (latitude/northing)
conn: A connection object to a DuckDB database. If NULL, the function runs on a temporary DuckDB database.
name: A character string of length one specifying the name of the table, or a character string of length two specifying the schema and table names. If NULL (the default), the function returns the result as an sf object
crs: The coordinates reference system of the data. Specify if the data doesn't have a crs_column, and you know the CRS.
crs_column: a character string of length one specifying the column storing the CRS (created automatically by ddbs_write_vector). Set to NULL if absent.
overwrite: Boolean. whether to overwrite the existing table if it exists. Defaults to FALSE. This argument is ignored when name is NULL.
quiet: A logical value. If TRUE, suppresses any informational messages. Defaults to FALSE.

Value

an sf object or TRUE (invisibly) for table creation

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
## load packages
library(duckspatial)
library(sf)

# create a duckdb database in memory (with spatial extension)
conn <- ddbs_create_conn(dbdir = "memory")

## read data
argentina_sf <- st_read(system.file("spatial/argentina.geojson", package = "duckspatial"))

## store in duckdb
ddbs_write_vector(conn, argentina_sf, "argentina")

## shift 10 degrees east and 5 degrees north
ddbs_shift(conn = conn, "argentina", dx = 10, dy = 5)

## shift without using a connection
ddbs_shift(argentina_sf, dx = 10, dy = 5)
} # }
