Usage
# S3 method for crs
st_as_text(x, ..., projjson = FALSE, pretty = FALSE)
st_as_text(x, ...)
# S3 method for sfg
st_as_text(x, ...)
# S3 method for sfc
st_as_text(x, ..., EWKT = FALSE)
Arguments
- x
object of class
sfg
,sfc
orcrs
- ...
modifiers; in particular
digits
can be passed to control the number of digits used- projjson
logical; if TRUE, return projjson form (requires GDAL 3.1 and PROJ 6.2), else return well-known-text form
- pretty
logical; if TRUE, print human-readable well-known-text representation of a coordinate reference system
- EWKT
logical; if TRUE, print SRID=xxx; before the WKT string if
epsg
is available
Details
The returned WKT representation of simple feature geometry conforms to the simple features access specification and extensions (known as EWKT, supported by PostGIS and other simple features implementations for addition of a SRID to a WKT string).
