similar to: plot single part of the country using gadm map

Dear All, Please see the short script at the end of the email, which I assembled looking for bits and pieces on the web. It essentially does what I need: it plots several countries as a color-coded map. I just would like to fine-tune a bit the final image, in particular (1) Select my own colors for "painting" the countries (i.e. associate manually a color to every level) (2) Be

Hello, I would like to place region names (or abbreviations if space is too limited) on a map. I have tried the following, copying and adapting various examples I have seen but without success. The first example is self-contained, but the second one requires the .shp file, which can retrieved at http://www.gadm.org/country. ----- Example 1 ----- library(sp) con <-

I am having trouble getting data labels to display over the provinces in a GADM map of Canada. Specifically, I need the variable "Number" from the data set "by_province", grouped by "region", to appear on the corresponding regions of the map. The data set "by_province" looks like this: long lat order hole piece region

Dear All, Please consider the snippet at the end of the email. I often download some maps (in the R format) from http://www.gadm.org/ However, when I run (typically more than once) a variation of the script below (based on http://bit.ly/1b3W0Aa ), I often get Error in load(url(paste("http://gadm.org/data/rda/", fileName, "_adm", : cannot open the connection In

Dear All, I need to do something relatively simple: generate a map of Europe and paint the various states with different colors (only 3-4 are needed) according to a rule. I would like to keep it as simple as possible and the script resorting to the sp package that I found at http://bit.ly/Oc71ub is exactly what I am looking for (I need to repeat the exercise with Europe instead of

I have csv data that extend beyond the area I want for an existing map. I want using the boundaries of the polygon shape file as a cookie cutter so that I can overlay the csv data on map without including anything outside the map boundaries and create a dbf file or shapefile of the clipped data .  The reproducible example: ############################################### library(RColorBrewer)

Hello, I would like to generate a small map (say 10cm x 10cm) of France showing cumulative numbers by Distribution Center stored in a database: DISTRIBUTION_CENTER COUNT Paris 122 Paris 3 Paris 21 Lyon 12 Lyon 4444 Lyon

Dear All, I like very much figure 2.a) and 2.b) of this paper http://www.nature.com/srep/2013/130410/srep01640/pdf/srep01640.pdf and I probably need a similar visualization. Is anything like that doable in R? I have some experience with R and gadm (gadm.org), but that is only to produce maps colored according to a scalar. I do not know how to visualize maps with a "perspective", let

Hello! I have 2 maps - both created in ssplot and both identical in terms of outline. Is there any way to superimpose Map1 (which has black borders between Canadian provinces) onto Map2 (which is also a map of Canada)? Thanks a lot for your hints! Dimitri ### A. Reading in Canada data at the province and then at the county level: library(raster) getData('ISO3') # Canada's code is

Hola He hecho el típico mapa con gadm y spplot: library(sp) ES <- local(get(load(url("http://biogeo.ucdavis.edu/data/gadm2/R/ESP_adm2.RData ")))) acerco las canarias: A <- which(ES en data$NAME_1 == "Islas Canarias") L <- length(ES en polygons[[A]]@Polygons) L <- length(ES en polygons[[A]]@Polygons) for (i in 1:L){ ES en polygons[[A]]@Polygons[[i]]@coords

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

I have a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame object (sp package). It contains 40 polygons. Now I want to join some of the polygones. I cannot figure out how to do that? Any ideas?

Dear R'ers, I am wondering what is the smallest geographicterritorial unit available for formatting in Canada. Provinces? I know that in the US it is the county so that I can color US counties any way I want, for example: ### Example for coloring US counties ### Creating an ARTIFICIAL criterion for coloring US counties: library(maps) allcounties<-data.frame(county=map('county',

Dear all, I am trying to create a map for central asian countries(Kazakhstan, Uzbekstan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenstan, and Tajikstan). I tried google for shapefiles and Rdata files of central asia, but I can't seem to find them. There is only a world map and individual maps for each countries. If I use individual maps to create this map, how do I put them on a same graphic with different colours?

Dear R list, I'm trying to create an object of class "owin" (observation window) in the package spatstat from GIS mapping data. Here's an example of my problem.

Hello, I am wondering about the X11() graphic device on Windows. I try to plot a raster image but nothing gets displayed. I found some pages where it is mentioned that x11() not always supports raster rendering. Is there any add on for x11, any update or any R-package which solves that displaying problem in Windows? What I try to test it is an example from the package {raster}: library(raster)
