I have been using the same code and function point.in.poly in the spatialEco package for several years. Today I am getting an error message: "Error: 'point.in.poly' is not an exported object from 'namespace:spatialEco'".
I have tried researching the error message but am going around in circles. I was hoping someone could explain the error message to me. This is the first time I have encountered this message.

As mentioned in here, point.in.poly is deprecated in favor of sf::st_intersection and is removed in version 2.0-2. Therefore, you cannot use the function as it is not defined. There are two solutions for this:
Replace point.in.poly() by sf::st_intersection().
Define point.in.poly yourself. The code for point.in.poly is:
point.in.poly <- function(dt, poly_shape) {
dt_pp <- dt[!is.na(sp::over(dt, sp::geometry(poly_shape))), ]
dt_pp@data <- data.frame(dt_pp@data, sp::over(dt_pp, poly_shape))
dt_pp@proj4string <- dt@proj4string
dt_pp
}
