Static maps

Description

Function to produce static maps from an object of class sf, IT, EU, US, or WR.

Usage

mapping(data = NULL, var = NULL, colID = NULL,
        type = c("static", "interactive"),
        typeStatic = c("tmap", "choro.cart", "typo","bar"),
        add_text = NULL, subset = NULL, facets = NULL, aggregation_fun = sum,
        aggregation_unit = NULL, options = mapping.options(), ...)

Arguments

data	an object of class sf, IT, EU, US, or WR
var	character value(s) or columns number(s) indicating the variable to plot
colID	character value or columns number indicating the column with unit names
type	if generates static or interactive map
typeStatic	type of static map
add_text	character name indicating the column with text labels
subset	a formula indicating the condition to subset the data. See the details
facets	variable(s) name to split the data
aggregation_fun	function to use when data are aggregated
aggregation_unit	variable name by which the unit are aggregate
options	a list with options using mapping.options function
...	further arguments

Details

It is a general function to map data. We can externally provide the coordinates with the variable to map, or the coordinates and the data to link.

If coordinates are provided and data is NULL, the function map the var in coordinates. If data is not NULL, then the function link data and coordinates, and the var is get from the data provided in input. If only data are provided without coordinates, the function search the colID among the the coordinates dataset provided by https://github.com/dataallaround/geospatial, to link the ids with coordinates. For search look at SearchNames

Value

Returns a map. For tmap type, the function also returns a tmap object.
