Description

An interactive plot with options to select to explore points in the geographical or environmental space. The environmental space is defined by the values of two principal components from a principal components analysis on several environmental variables.

geo2envpca(edat, g1, group1 = "Species", group2 = "", 
world, scaling = 1, vars = c("AMT", "AP", "MTCM", "MTWM", 
"PWQ", "PCQ"), showrecord = "", ext = c(-180, 180, -60, 90))

Arguments

edat

a dataframe containing fields with the following names: ID, x, y, Species, x_original, y_original, Correction, Modified, Exclude and the values of selected environmental variables

g1

the name of the species to select

group1

this is usually the column of species names

group2

a second grouping variable

world

a shapefile of the world, where the column containing the country names must be "NAMES"; see data(wrld_simpl)

scaling

a value of 1 or 2 for the type of scaling of the PCA space

vars

a character vector of environmental variable names that will be used to define the environmental space. Values of these variables must be present in edat.

showrecord

the ID of a selected record to be shown on the map

ext

The extent, which can be specified as c(xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax) default extent c(-180, 180, -90, 90). Alternatively if ext="p" then the extent will be calculated from the coordinates of the points in the dataset.

Details

The selected records are marked with a red dot and ID numbers are shown. Records that are considered to be outliers can be excluded by selecting the record in the environmental space. A menu with various options is produced.

Value

Interactive plot

Note

plotsetup should be run first
