So I have a pretty simple question regarding the size of my data. I am trying to calculate the distance between all sets points (WGS84) in a dataset (56000).
https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/geosphere/versions/1.5-10/topics/distm According to the documentation: distm(x,y,fun="") if missing, y is the same as x
mydist<-distm(coordinates(mySpatialObject), fun="distHaversine")
This led me to an Error that y was missing. So I figured I could easily work around this.
distm(coordinates(WeedClim.plot),coordinates(WeedClim.plot), fun="distHaversine")
This leads to not just R:Studio, but my entire computer freezing. I had to to a hard reset twice now and do not want to go through this again, because this is my dissertation and I am afraid of breaking something else in the project XD.
Any ideas/solutions? Is there a better function that gives me a distance matrix from a set of coordinates?
THANKS!
