I have daily data by latitude and longitude on some weather variables such as maxT and minT. I wish to re-sample from this data such that if a lat/long on a day is selected to be in the sample then all lat/longs within 300 Kms of this lat/long (neighbours) should also be a part of the sample. I am not sure how to do this.So far I have used the command dnearneigh from the spdep package to identiy the lat/longs within 300 kms of each lat/long.
Thanks in advance for your help. Here is my sample data and the R code.
dput(head(rad_aod_temp_daily,1))
structure(list(latitude = 23L, longitude = 68L, year = 2000L,

aod = 0.27, day_of_season = 1L, cntry = structure(1L, .Label = "India", class = "factor"),
state = structure(2L, .Label = c("Bihar", "Gujarat", "Haryana",
"Madhya Pradesh", "Maharashtra", "Punjab", "Rajasthan", "Uttar Pradesh"
), class = "factor"), log_sr = 0.7277523, time = 1L, time2 = 1L,
date = structure(1275L, .Label = c("01-Apr-01", "01-Apr-02",
