[R] gvisGeoChart not recognizing US states as regions
I'm having trouble using gvisGeoChart with region fills. I would like to fill a map of the U.S. by state. The documentation says it can be of the form "US-NJ" or "New Jersey", but I tried both and neither works for me. When I tried the latter the country of Georgia is filled, so at least it's doing something. Am I forgetting to set something important? Here is a code sample: require(googleVis) data=read.csv("states_w_prob.csv") GeoC=gvisGeoChart(data,locationvar="Name",numvar="prob",options=list(dataMode="regions")) plot(GeoC) (locationvar can be "Name" or "code") And the first few rows of the csv file: Name state Lat Long code MLAT prob Alaska AK 61.385 -152.268 US-AK 67.16471 NA Alabama AL 32.799 -86.8073 US-AL 40.19146 0.177872 Arkansas AR 34.9513 -92.3809 US-AR 42.68162 0.215224 Thanks in advance for any insight.
