title: Change CRS +proj=longlat +datum=WGS84 +pm=-160 +no_defs +ellps=WGS84 +towgs84=0,0,0
body: <p>I have downloaded a SpatialLinesDataFrame from <a href="http://www.esapubs.org/archive/ecol/E094/150/#data" rel="nofollow">http://www.esapubs.org/archive/ecol/E094/150/#data</a> with the following CRS +proj=longlat +datum=WGS84 +pm=-160 +no_defs +ellps=WGS84 +towgs84=0,0,0.</p>
  
  <p>I need to change this projection to regular longlat and make a diversity map out of this dataset. The problem is that a regular reprojection does not work because the coordinates will go over 180 degrees east. Could anyone give some suggestion how to reproject this dataset and to extract raster layers at 5 arcminutes spatial resolution. This will allow me to stack the raster files and extract biodiversity values.</p>
  
  <p>Any help is appreciated, Niels</p>
