将重叠的多边形合并为单个多边形

我有一个数据集，其中包含多个多边形的 x 和 y 坐标，例如

df <- data.frame(
  xpol = c(0.304147897, 0.272762377, 0.239435395, 0.204166952, 0.166957048, 0.127805683, 0.086712856, 0.043678568, -0.001297181, -0.048214391, -0.097073063, -0.147873196, -0.20061479, -0.255297845, -0.311922362, -0.37048834, -0.430995779, -0.493444679, -0.557835041, -0.624166864, -0.692440148, -0.698421984, -0.629639016, -0.562974508, -0.49842846, -0.436000872, -0.375691745, -0.317501078, -0.261428871, -0.207475125, -0.155639838, -0.105923012, -0.058324646, -0.012844741, 0.030516705, 0.07175969, 0.110884215, 0.147890279, 0.182777884, 0.215547028, 0.246197712, 0.274729935, 0.460208646, 0.414820816, 0.370699056, 0.327843365, 0.286253743, 0.245930191, 0.206872708, 0.169081295, 0.132555951, 0.097296676, 0.063303471, 0.030576335, -0.000884731, -0.031079728, -0.060008655, -0.087671513, -0.114068302, -0.139199021, -0.163063671, -0.185662251, -0.206994762, -0.236134298, -0.212015307, -0.186885196, -0.160743963, -0.133591608, -0.105428133, -0.076253536, -0.046067818, -0.014870978, 0.017336983, 0.050556065, 0.084786268, 0.120027593, 0.156280039, 0.193543606, 0.231818295, 0.271104105, 0.311401036, 0.352709088, 0.395028262, 0.438358557, 0.209348542, 0.187353371, 0.163237565, 0.137001125, 0.108644051, 0.078166342, 0.045567999, 0.010849022, -0.02599059, -0.064950835, -0.106031716, -0.14923323, -0.194555379, -0.241998162, -0.29156158, -0.343245631, -0.397050318, -0.452975638, -0.511021593, -0.571188182, -0.633475405, -0.640474396, -0.577641289, -0.517236848, -0.459261072, -0.403713963, -0.350595518, -0.29990574, -0.251644627, -0.20581218, -0.162408398, -0.121433282, -0.082886832, -0.046769047, -0.013079928, 0.018180525, 0.047012313, 0.073415435, 0.097389891, 0.118935682, 0.138052807, 0.154741267, 0.553882586, 0.49867869, 0.443843518, 0.38937707, 0.335279346, 0.281550347, 0.228190072, 0.175198522, 0.122575695, 0.070321594, 0.018436216, -0.033080437, -0.084228366, -0.135007571, -0.185418051, -0.235459807, -0.285132839, -0.334437146, -0.383372729, -0.431939588, -0.480137722, -0.492000258, -0.442687027, -0.393147385, -0.343381332, -0.293388868, -0.243169994, -0.192724709, -0.142053012, -0.091154906, -0.040030388, 0.011320541, 0.06289788, 0.11470163, 0.166731791, 0.218988363, 0.271471345, 0.324180739, 0.377116543, 0.430278758, 0.483667384, 0.53728242, 0.242356084, 0.217556549, 0.191629161, 0.164573921, 0.136390827, 0.10707988, 0.076641081, 0.045074429, 0.012379923, -0.021442435, -0.056392646, -0.09247071, -0.129676627, -0.168010397, -0.207472019, -0.248061495, -0.289778824, -0.332624005, -0.37659704, -0.421697927, -0.467926667, -0.480137722, -0.432800923, -0.386818069, -0.342189162, -0.2989142, -0.256993185, -0.216426115, -0.177212991, -0.139353813, -0.102848581, -0.067697295, -0.033899955, -0.00145656, 0.029632888, 0.059368391, 0.087749947, 0.114777558, 0.140451223, 0.164770942, 0.187736715, 0.209348542),

  ID = c(rep(849, 42), rep(6249, 42), rep(7809, 42), rep(17045, 42), rep(18495, 42))
)

哪一个可以用它来绘图

ggplot() +
  geom_polygon(aes(x = xpol, y = ypol, group = factor(ID)), 
               data = df, 
               fill = "grey", color = "black", alpha = 0.6) +
  theme_bw() +
  xlim(-1,1) +
  ylim(-1,1)

正如我们所看到的，一些多边形重叠......

我想合并数据，例如重叠的多边形转换为单个多边形，因此生成的图将是（手动编辑的图形）

为了完整起见，多边形可能不与任何多边形重叠、与 1 个多边形重叠或与许多（许多）其他多边形重叠。

也许是这样的？

library(dplyr)
library(sf)

sf.object <- df %>%
  # convert data frame to sf object
  st_as_sf(coords = c("xpol", "ypol")) %>%

  # cast points associated with each ID as a polygon
  group_by(ID) %>%
  summarise(geometry = st_combine(geometry)) %>%
  st_cast("POLYGON") %>%
  ungroup() %>%

  # union polygons
  st_union()

# plot result using geom_sf()
ggplot() +
  geom_sf(data = sf.object,
          fill = "grey", color = "black", alpha = 0.6) +
  theme_bw() +
  coord_sf(xlim = c(-1, 1),
           ylim = c(-1, 1))
