\name{point.in.polygon}
\alias{point.in.polygon}
\title{ do point(s) fall in a given polygon? }
\description{
verifies for one or more points whether they fall in a given polygon
}
\usage{
point.in.polygon(point.x, point.y, pol.x, pol.y, mode.checked=FALSE)
}
\arguments{
\item{point.x}{numerical array of x-coordinates of points}
\item{point.y}{numerical array of y-coordinates of points}
\item{pol.x}{numerical array of x-coordinates of polygon}
\item{pol.y}{numerical array of y-coordinates of polygon}
\item{mode.checked}{default FALSE, used internally to save time when all the other argument are known to be of storage mode double}
}
\value{ integer array; values are:
0: point is strictly exterior to pol;
1: point is strictly interior to pol;
2: point lies on the relative interior of an edge of pol;
3: point is a vertex of pol.
