Hey R'rs,
So im sick of dealing with ESRI products and am looking to stream line a
process i now use GIS to do using R. I have made a lot of maps using R but
have not yet seen a map that puts pie charts within the map to help
represent data like the attachment.
http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n2318816/template1.bmp
I found Tanimura et al. work "Proportional Symbol Mapping in R", but
after a
discussion with one of the authors i have learned that the function is out
of date and would require a great deal of reworking. I also found hexbinpie
on the R graphics gallery that i could incorporate.
Before i go through the process of rewriting or out right creation of a
process to replicate my GIS results i was hoping to make sure there wasnt
something out there i could use to start or use altogether. Or perhaps a
set of functions that already exists that i havent thought to use.
Thanks for the insights everyone.
JR

Check out the gallery of R chart; here is one to look at: http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=143 On Mon, Aug 9, 2010 at 1:04 PM, LCOG1 <jroll at lcog.org> wrote:> > Hey R'rs, > ? ?So im sick of dealing with ESRI products and am looking to stream line a > process i now use GIS to do using R. ?I have made a lot of maps using R but > have not yet seen a map that puts pie charts within the map to help > represent data like the attachment. > http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n2318816/template1.bmp > > I found Tanimura et al. work "Proportional Symbol Mapping in R", but after a > discussion with one of the authors i have learned that the function is out > of date and would require a great deal of reworking. ?I also found hexbinpie > on the R graphics gallery that i could incorporate. > > Before i go through the process of rewriting or out right creation of a > process to replicate my GIS results i was hoping to make sure there wasnt > something out there i could use to start or use altogether. ?Or perhaps a > set of functions that already exists that i havent thought to use. > > Thanks for the insights everyone. > > JR > -- > View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Pie-Chart-in-map-tp2318816p2318816.html > Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > ______________________________________________ > R-help at r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. >-- Jim Holtman Cincinnati, OH +1 513 646 9390 What is the problem that you are trying to solve?
Look at the my.symbols and subplot functions in the TeachingDemos package, one of those may work for you. Note however that the author of those functions is one of the advocates against the use of pie charts and if there were a free (as in speech) license that would allow for excluding any use of the functions in conjunction with pie charts, that would be the license used. So, you may want to also consider using better alternatives to the pie chart. -- Gregory (Greg) L.

The package mapplots lets you plot pie charts on a map and vary their size. http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n4635089/pie.png -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Pie-Chart-in-map-tp2318816p4635089.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
