similar to: Coloring Canada provinces (package maps?)

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

I'm trying to create maps of reptile abundance in different states & counties using data from Herp.net, which provides lists of specimens with the places that they were found. First I would like to parse the list by state using 2-letter abbreviations, since I'm focusing on certain regions. To do this, I've been trying to create a vector (state2) that gives all state names as

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, in GADM map there are three levels (nation, province and precinct) for each country of the world but for all of them you are never able to plot only one part of a chosen country. To be sure, I am trying to plot only one region of “Italy” and colour the different precincts in it. So far I am able to colour only the part of my interest but the programme still plot the whole country. Is

Dear all, I am interested in plotting maps visualizing spatial statistics in an aggregated fashion, according to administrative boundaries. More specifically, I have fitted a cross-section model on data regarding Italian "counties" (province, for Italian readers) and I would like to visualize residual behavior on a map, in order to have a first assessment of their spatial

*Hello all ** I am a newbie to R plotting maps. I am trying to plot over a world map a layer of Biogeochemical provinces (BGCP) by A.R. Longhurst. Each ocean region unfortunately are quite irregular in shape (not perfect squares). In GIS this layer of ocean provinces would be a layer of polygons, which I am assuming it cannot be plotted with R. I was wondering If anybody has encounter this

cheers , I need help in shapefile manipulations. I have two shapefiles of my country Cameroon. The first contain 10 provinces and each province contains a certain number of administratives units. I dont have ESRI Arc view. I want to add a admistrative unit of the center province to the map with 10 province. Is it possible to to take a peace of shapefile and combining it to another ? Thanks !

Hi is there a way in R to create a new column vector with the numbers of 2 others columns simply appended? Example : I have a column with provinces codes (1 to 19) I have a second column with districts codes (1 to ##, depending on the province) I want to create a third column with a code that would be unique for each district: Province  District   District_Unique 1             1            11

I''m doing a registration form. I saw many registrations forms which asks you for a country and it lists all the countries of the world, and when you select a country the form is actualized with all the states or provinces, and when you select a state/province then the form is actualized with all the cities. I''m looking to do something like that, is there a free service or pay

Hello helpful R folks, First off, please forgive my English. Second, I'm new with R, I've searched the archives about subsets, and I haven't found quite the help I need. I'm currently analysing a population survey whose data set has about 15000 households (the rows/observations) and 130 variables (the columns). I've managed to import the set into R as a data.frame called

Dear UseRs, I'm using the library maps. I'm drawing maps of Italy. The map available for this library were prepared around *1989*: "This italy database comes from the NUTS III (Tertiary Administrative Units of the European Community) database of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) GRID-Geneva data sets. These were prepared around *1989*" [cited:

I have an address model with country_id and province_id fields There is also a full_address method that returns an address that is in a format that the google maps api will be able to return a long-lat coords. Within the full_address method there is a call to obtain the province/state and country name. --------- def full_address ... full_address = [city, self.province.name,

Dear R-listers, I would like to carry out a very basic descriptive analysis of homicides rates in Italy, taking into account both the spatial dimension (103 provinces) and the temporal dimension (10 years), but no covariates. In practice, what I would like to do is to describe spatio-temporal variation of homicide rates, identifying those combinations of province-year where the homicide rate

Hi, i am currently working on a problem where i need to plot latitude and longitude data on a respective county of UK.

I'm using ssplot for drawing a map of Austria and colour the nine provinces regarding their share of employment. Now I wanted to add the figures in each province and failed miserably. Using the locator() and text() function caused the error message "invalid graphics state". I try to show you what I have done below, maybe you can find a general fault in my codes. I know that it's

I am trying to create a frequency distribution and I am a bit confused. Here are the commands I have entered: > data <- read.csv(file="40609_sortedfinal.csv",head=TRUE,sep=",") > NumberOfActionsByStatus = data$STATUS > NumberOfActionsByUser = data$ETS_LOGIN > NumberOfBidOffer = data$BID_OFFER > NumberOfActionsByUser.freq = table(NumberOfActionsByUser) >

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

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

Dear R-ers, I hope there is a really simple solution to my problem. I've written a function that I saved in an .r file. I source this file in my code. For a while it worked fine. But then when I run the line: source("F mylineplot.r") I started getting a warning: In readLines(file) : incomplete final line found on 'F mylineplot.r' I have no idea why - I tried to check and
