mapping bathymetries and species abundances
...en newer to mapping with R. I have installed
PBSMapping, maptools and maps, and I am struggling to produce a map of
fish abundance in the Grand Banks. I have tried several approaches to

1) download the data from http://topex.ucsd.edu/cgi-bin/get_data.cgi

Besides, it seems that the shallower isobath is 500 m. Or maybe I am
wrong here?
2) import a shapefile with the bathymetry, but I get the following error:
test <- read.shapefile("C:/data")
