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 several cities that I

Does anyone have any experience plotting complex polygons on a scatterplot3d display? I would like to present some spatially binned data in a 3-d type plot with background polygons (i.e.. a filled coastline map). I can get the coastline onto the plot window as a 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

The issue shows when installing some packages. I was interested in using "gplots" so i ran: install.packages("gplots", dependencies=TRUE) and the outcome was something like this: Aviso en install.packages("gplots", dependencies = TRUE) : argument 'lib' is missing: using '/home/buscoverdad/R/i686-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.11' ---

I had installed de "gplots" package and then I loaded the library but the package did not work.

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

Dear all, I have an issue trying to install new packages (have tried with RODBC_1.3-1, gplots_2.6.1, gtools_2.7.4 packages) and get the same error message : "Error in library(gplots) : there is no package called 'gplots'" Only clue I have found so far on the Web is related to Perl (Perl modules are installed on my computer, but which one is related to gplots if any ?); no

I have a revised version of the gregmisc package, which I've converted into a package bundle each of which has a namespace: gplots, gmodels, gdata, gtoools. Of course, there are interdependencies among these namespaces: gsun374: /tmp [11]> cd gregmisc/ gsun374: gregmisc [12]> grep import */NAMESPACE gdata/NAMESPACE:importFrom(gtools, odd, invalid, mixedsort)

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, I have some data which I was plotting using image(). I wanted to add a vertical color key to the plot and I found that heatmap.2 in gplots does let me add a color key. However, I was thinking of a vertical bar with the color range rather than the style that gplots provides. Is there any package (or code snippet) that would let me add a vertical color key to an image() or heatmap

When I try to install the ROCR package (which requires gplots) on Ubuntu 9.10 (Xubuntu Karmic Koala) 64-bit on R version 2.9.2 (2009-08-24), it eats up all my RAM (2GB) and swap (4GB) and keeps allocating more memory until Linux's out of memory (OOM) killer kills the perl process. This problem is special to Ubuntu because I can install other packages (such as party) on this Ubuntu system, and
