Create thematic maps and integrate them into your R workflow.
This package helps you design different cartographic representations
such as proportional symbols, choropleths, or typology maps. It also
provides several functions for displaying layout elements that enhance
the graphical presentation of maps (e.g., scale bar, north arrow, title,
labels). mapsf maps sf objects on
base graphics.
You can install the released version of mapsf from CRAN with:
install.packages("mapsf")Alternatively, you can install the development version of
mapsf (the dev branch) from r-universe with:
install.packages("mapsf", repos = "https://riatelab.r-universe.dev")This is a basic example which shows how to create a map with
mapsf.
library(mapsf)
# Import the sample dataset
mtq <- mf_get_mtq()
# Plot the base map
mf_map(x = mtq)
# Plot proportional symbols
mf_map(x = mtq, var = "POP", type = "prop", leg_pos = "topright")
# Plot a map layout
mf_layout(
title = "Population in Martinique",
credits = "T. Giraud; Sources: INSEE & IGN, 2018"
)
