Demo 1- Map the retieved Localities that contains As

#mapview(localities_list_elems_inc(c("As")), xcol = "longitude", ycol = "latitude", crs = 4269, grid = FALSE)#"Dy","Li"

Demo 2- Map the retieved Localities within an given country

#mapview(localities_list_country(c("Sweden")), xcol = "longitude", ycol = "latitude", crs = 4269, grid = FALSE)

Demo 3- Map the retieved Localities that contains the input description.

#mapview(localities_list_description("volcano"), xcol = "longitude", ycol = "latitude", crs = 4269, grid = FALSE)

Demo 4- Map the retieved Localities that contains the input description.
