\description{
Transform or convert coordinates of simple features directly with Proj.4 (bypassing GDAL)
}
\details{
Transforms coordinates of object to new projection, using PROJ directly rather than the GDAL API used by \link[sf]{st_transform}.
If \code{crs} is a single CRS, it forms the target CRS, and in that case the source CRS is obtained as \code{st_crs(x)}. Since this presumes that the source CRS is accepted by GDAL (which is not always the case), a second option is to specify the source and target CRS as two proj4strings in argument \code{crs}. In the latter case, \code{st_crs(x)} is ignored and may well be \code{NA}.
The \code{st_transform_proj} method for \code{sfg} objects assumes that the CRS of the object is available as an attribute of that name.

\examples{
library(sf)
p1 = st_point(c(7,52))
p2 = st_point(c(-30,20))

sfc
st_transform_proj(sfc, "+proj=wintri")
library(sf)
nc = st_read(system.file("shape/nc.shp", package="sf"))
st_transform_proj(nc[1,], "+proj=wintri +over")
