#Download PfPR data for Nigeria and Cameroon and map the locations of these points using autoplot
## Not run: 
library(dplyr)
NGA_CMR_PR <- getPR(country = c("Nigeria", "Cameroon"), species = "Pf")

# Filter the data frame then readd pr.points class so that autoplot can be used.

  filter(year_start > 2010) %>%
  as.pr.points %>%
  autoplot
