Filter one or more geometries by a reference geometry using a single geometric predicate.

geometry_filter.Rd

Filter one or more geometries by a reference geometry using a single geometric predicate.

Usage

geometry_filter(.target_geoms, .reference_geom, .predicate, ...)

Arguments

.target_geoms

A table of one or more to-be-filtered simple features.

.reference_geom

A single simple feature that the targets will be compared to.

.predicate

A <sf::geos_binary_pred()>

...

<dynamic-dots> arguments for selecting columns from .target_geoms

Value

a subset of .target_geoms that meets the criteria represented by .reference_geom and .predicate
