Extract spatial features inside a polygon

Usage

hotspot_clip(data, boundary, quiet = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

data: sf data frame containing spatial features.
boundary: sf data frame containing polygons.
quiet: if set to TRUE, messages reporting the values of any parameters set automatically will be suppressed. The default is FALSE.
...: Further arguments passed to st_intersection.

Value

an SF data frame containing those spatial features that are covered by the polygons.

Details

This function is a wrapper around st_intersection that performs some additional checks and reports useful information. If data has a specialised result class produced by this package, that class is preserved in the clipped result. A warning is produced if clipping reduces the dimension of any geometry, such as from a polygon to a line.
