googleVis motionchart - slow with Date class
Hi, I am trying to create a googleVis motion chart with monthly data. When formatting the date column as a Date class variable, the plot as presented in the browser becomes considerably slower and very prone to crashing the browser. To illustrate this issue I have modified the WorldBank demo. ### objects from demo("WorldBank", package = "googleVis") M <- gvisMotionChart(subData, idvar="country.name", timevar="year", options=list(width=700, height=600)) plot(M) This works fine and I can smoothly move back and forth between the scatter pl...

The Future of R | API to Public Databases
...ccess (and analyze) all public data in the easiest way possible. That would create a real impact, would put R a big leap forward and would enable us to see the world with different eyes. There is a lack of a direct connection to the API of these databases, to name a few: - Eurostat - OECD - IMF - Worldbank - UN - FAO - data.gov - ... The ease of access to the data is the key of information processing with R. How can we handle the flow of information noise? R has to give an answer to that with an extensive API to public databases. I would love your comments and ideas as a contribution in a vital di...
