The main task of the ‘maptools’ package is to use the function ‘readShapePoly’ to read a shapefile. If you encounter issues with ‘readShapePoly’ or the ‘maptools’ package, there are alternative packages and functions you can try. For instance, you can use the ‘shapefile’ function from the ‘raster’ package. Additionally, you can download the ‘maptools’ package directly from CRAN, as Ko Phyo did.
