Hi Marcos and Barry,
Another, low-level solution would be:
----------------
d <- as.data.frame(matrix(data=NA, nrow=4))
d$xy <- c("POINT (-59.900833 -34.869722)", "POINT (-60.009032477477234 \
-34.71350213192503)", "POINT (-60.13337136105485 -34.74472597084807)", "POINT \
(-60.199859958706185 -34.7384738077165)")
vs_numbers_and_space = substr(d$xy, start=8, stop=nchar(d$xy)-1) # remove "POINT (" \
at beginning and ")" at end of strings # vs_ : vector of strings
ms_just_numbers = matrix(unlist(strsplit(vs_numbers_and_space, split=" ")), nrow=4, \
byrow = TRUE) # split strings at space, and put into matrix # ms_ : matrix of strings
d$X = as.numeric(ms_just_numbers[,1])
d$Y = as.numeric(ms_just_numbers[,2])
remove(vs_numbers_and_space, ms_just_numbers)
-------------------------------

Hi community,
I have a data frame of points with coordinates (WKT) in one column. It is
d <- as.data.frame(NULL)
d$xy <- c("POINT (-59.900833 -34.869722)", "POINT (-60.009032477477234 \
-34.71350213192503)", "POINT (-60.13337136105485 -34.74472597084807)", "POINT \
(-60.199859958706185 -34.7384738077165)")
I want to convert this into:
d$X
-59.900833
-60.009032
-60.133371
-60.199860
d$Y
-34.869722
-34.713502
-34.744726
-34.738474
I've tried with gsub() but I'm not handy with regular expressions. Could you help me, \
please?
Marcos.

If you install rgeos then you get the readWKT function, and use sp as
well to build some spatial points:
[tip: use `dput(d)` to dump sample data]
> d = structure(list(xy = c("POINT (-59.900833 -34.869722)", "POINT \
> (-60.009032477477234 -34.71350213192503)",
"POINT (-60.13337136105485 -34.74472597084807)", "POINT
(-60.199859958706185 -34.7384738077165)"
)), .Names = "xy", row.names = c(NA, -4L), class = "data.frame")
> library(sp); library(rgeos)
> xy = do.call(rbind,lapply(d$xy, readWKT))
> xy
SpatialPoints:
x y
1 -59.90083 -34.86972
1 -60.00903 -34.71350
1 -60.13337 -34.74473
1 -60.19986 -34.73847
You can then get the separate coordinates as vectors:
> xy$x
1 1 1 1
-59.90083 -60.00903 -60.13337 -60.19986
> xy$y
1 1 1 1
-34.86972 -34.71350 -34.74473 -34.73847
[the 1s are just row labels]
If you just want a 2-column matrix:
> coordinates(xy)
x y
1 -59.90083 -34.86972
1 -60.00903 -34.71350
1 -60.13337 -34.74473
1 -60.19986 -34.73847
- thats a matrix, not a data frame, but you can easily build one!
Barry
