Hi, Could any one point me to the projection, and parameters if necessary, that would show each country/continent with it's area accurately refelcted on the plot? E.g. aitoff vs. albers vs. bonne vs. cylequalearea vs. guyou - they don't all look the same to mee but some of the documentations suggests they are equal area? Of course this isn't my field, so I am largely guessing and am

...ody know what to consider or provide when working in a external console like bash and/or does anybody know about such halted executions when working with GDAL?

Dear list, The dichromat package defines a dichromat function which "Collapses red-green color distinctions to approximate the effect of the two common forms of red-green colour blindness, protanopia and deuteranopia." library(dichromat) library(grid) colorStrip <- function (colors = 1:3, draw = TRUE) { x <- seq(0, 1 - 1/length(colors), length = length(colors)) y <-

...ut when I once bollixed up the virtual machine, my cyber-savvy didn't suffice to restore it. And yes, I know there are Linux-native suites nowadays; and Garmin is reported to've put its source code into the public domain. Alas!, those suites all seem to require advanced degrees in CS, cartography, or fields too fierce to mention. <sigh> Are we there yet? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Power User Remember I know little (precious little!) of where up is.

Hola! Quiero empezar a georeferenciar en mapas con R. En blogs se encuentra bastante información pero veo que no hay unanimidad respecto a las librerías a utilizar ni tampoco la información es muy clara ni abarcativa. ¿Alguno/a trabaja con mapas en R y me puede indicar por donde encarar? En principio mi interés es realizar mapas sencillos con información por provincias y departamentos de

Hi, I would like to announce the first version of GraspeR. It is a port of GRASP (Generalized Regression Analysis and Spatial Predictions) written for S-Plus, to R. It serves as an "automated" method for doing spatial predictions. You can find the first testing version at http://www.fivaz.ch/grasper/index.html. For now, I provide a dump file you can read with source(). A UNIX package is

Hi, I have two questions: First, does anyone know how to put a combobox inside a GUI made with Tcl/Tk ? I think there isn't a simple way to do this (a command like tkcombobox()!), but is it possible to write a more complex code to achieve this ? Second, when I put two listboxes in the same window or frame (even in two different toplevel windows), I cannot select things in the two lists

Hi, Is it possible to compare two GAM objects created with the gam() function from the mgcv package. I use a slightly modified version of anova.glm() named anova.gam(), modified from John Fox (2002). It often gives me some aberant responses, especially with "F" test. I use a quasibinomial model and scale (dispersion) is calculated and used in the calculation of the F value. Does someone

M. Camanm posted in Jul 1999 the following message: " Is there any way to fill the bars in a barplot() with solid lines for postscript output, i.e. cross hatch or parallel lines, or a halftone gray rather than (semi) continuous-tone gray produced by gray()? S allows this, or at least used to, via the angle and density arguments to barplot(). The objective of course, is to produce camera

i've search the email archives, searched the documention of various map packages and done an R-site search, but have been unable to find direct resources for creating maps of the US that are colored or annotated or ... by zipcode data. For example, create a map of the US and color each zipcode region by its population using two vectors z,p containing the zipcode and population,
