Hello, is there a package in R that would allow map drawing: coastlines, country/state boundaries, maybe topography, rivers etc? Thanks for any guidance, Mark

Moreover, what about reading the posting guide and trying to search yourself at first. I think it is almost impossible not to find "maps" on CRAN in your case.

Try RSiteSearch("map") or help.search("map")

help.search("asdf") only works if you have "asdf" in
something that
is installed. RSiteSearch("asdf"), on the other hand, works for
anything in the R archives. This does NOT include, however, the
contents of R News, which you can search via http://www.r-project.org/
-> Newsletter -> [Table of Contents (all issues)].
