dear all: Im trying to obtain maps on R, under mapdata library, but I cannot define the labels. Here is an example: library(mapdata) map("worldHires", c("portugal","spain"),ylim=c(34,46),xlim=c(-14,3.5)) axis(1,at=seq(-12,3,3)) axis(2) when I try the parameter xlab or ylab in axis, i get: parameter "ylab" coul...

I am using the latest version of R 2.13.1 and need to load the following packages; library(maps) library(mapdata) library(mapproj) library(lattice) library(tgp) library(spatstat) library(akima) I get the follwing error when loading the packages, "maps", "mapdata" and "mapproj" Error: package 'maps' is not installed for 'arch=i386' Error: package 'mapdata'...

Dear Helpers: I'm trying to use packages "maps" and "mapdata" (see blow) to display the research resutls on map (Mid-Atlantic region). In particular, I need to mark a number of points in the map by giving their latitude and longitude information. For instance, I would like to mark a point on (long, lat) =(75.56027, 39.09271). Also, I need to mark sev...

...line type but cannot figure out how to fill the shape. I'm certain it may be possible but might require a bit of digging into the scatterplot3d code and rotational method. Any and all help or suggestions appreciated. EX. library(scatterplot3d) # get a coastline library(maps) library(mapdata) coast<-map('worldHires', c('usa','canada'),xlim=c(-72,-67), ylim=c(40,45),fill=TRUE, col='gray') # note: substitute a simple polygon if you don't have maps and mapdata # coast<-list() # coast$x<-c(-70.5,-70.5,-70,-70) # coast$y<-c(41.2,43,43,41.2)...

Nearly a month ago I announced the availability of a Windows port of the maps for S package but for various reasons the Windows binaries did not appear on CRAN until yesterday. Now I am pleased to announce that the three packages maps_2.0-8 (the base maps package with low-resolution databases), mapdata_2.0-6 (high-resolution and other databases) and mapproj_1.1 (projection add-on for maps, maintained by Tom Minka) are all now available on CRAN both in source and Windows binary forms. I apologise for the delays. Ray Brownrigg _______________________________________________ R-packages mailing lis...

Hello, I've installed the Becker and Wilks maps, mapdata, and mapproj packages so I can begin to try these out for some work I need to do on a map of Alaska but I don't know where to find a map of Alaska. Has anyone solved this already and could help? Thanks very much in advance, Caitlin

Hi R-help I am trying to mask the ocean from an image plot I have made. Here is some example code: library(mapdata) image(x=110:155, y =-40:-10, z = outer(1:45, 1:30, "+"), xlab = "lon", ylab = "lat") outline <- map("worldHires", plot=FALSE) # returns a list of x/y coords xrange <- range(outline$x, na.rm=TRUE) # get bounding box yrange <- range(outline...

.... I have a dataset consisting of particular locations scattered across Europe, along with magnitude and value information. I can plot these as discrete points with something like the following: "geocode" is a dataframe with four columns: LAT; LONG; MAGNITUDE;VALUE. library(maps) library(mapdata) map("worldHires", regions=c("Germany", "Belgium", "Netherlands")) points(geocode$LONG, geocode$LAT, cex=geocode$MAGNITUDE / 2500, col=rainbow(length(geocode$VALUE), start=0, end=.4)[rank(geocode$VALUE)]) This gives me a map of Europe with my datapoints high...

Hi, I'm trying to plot a map of the pacific ocean, centered on the dateline, using the maps package. library(maps) # Basic library to draw maps library(mapdata)# Library with specialized maps library(mapproj) map(database = "world", fill = TRUE, col = 1, plot = TRUE,add=F, xlim = c(120,300), ylim = c(-20,40)) I tried several different combinations of coordinates, but whatever I try, it doesn't plot anything past the dateline. Is there a...

What tools and documentation exist for producing maps and working with polygon and polylist objects in R beyond the following: * Packages maps, mapproj, maptools, and mapdata. * Becker and Wilks (1993, 1995), listed as references in the documentation on the "map" function. Thanks, Spencer Graves

Hi there, Does it already exist a library in R to draw maps (something like a Generic Mapping Toolbox, http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu/ port). I've seen in an old R-help that Ross Ihaka once tried to port the S-plus map library (http://maths.newcastle.edu.au/~rking/R/help/99b/0832.html ). Anybody know if this package is available somewhere or if there is somebody developing a Mapping package

R users, In S, there was a function called usa() that would draw the map of the United States, plus it had other options for graphics. I have looked but I can't find the equivalent in R. Is there one? Thanks, Jason

The original S maps package, previously only available in R on Unix systems is now available in R for Windows. maps_2.0-2 and mapdata_2.0-2 (see below) in both source and Windows binary form (for rw1071) have been uploaded to CRAN, hopefully soon to appear. The key aspect of this package which differentiates it from other GIS related R packages under development is that it is standalone within R, i.e. it does not rely on the pre...

Does anyone have suggestions about how to produce a map of British Colonial America 1775? At that time, Great Britain had 26 colonies in the Americas, including Bermuda, several Caribbean islands, "Quebec" (extending then almost to New Orleans), Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, Belize, and the 13 that declared independence in 1776. I've reviewed the "map"

...& Windows XP) I would like to see if I can plot some simple data (Number of people in certain regions of Canada and within Ontario and Quebec. Can anyone suggest a) a souce of Canadian maps and b) some simple worked examples of using maps. At the moment I have managed to load the map and mapdata libraries but that is about the extend of my knowledge. So far I have not found anything that is as basic as I need. I need something pretty simple.
