In globe: Plot 2D and 3D Views of the Earth, Including Major Coastline

Description

Plots points on a 2D projection of the Earth created using flatearth, taking into account the projection used.

Usage

  flatpoints(loc, projection = c("atlas", "cylindrical"), ..., do.plot)

Arguments

loc	A data frame containing latitudes and longitudes of points to be plotted.
projection	The projection that was used in creating the 2D image.
...	Other arguments usually used when plotting points.
do.plot	Logical value indicating whether to actually perform the plotting, or just to return the calculated coordinates.
