mn_aimags: Aimags (provinces) of Mongolia

In mongolmaps: Maps and Administrative Boundaries of Mongolia and Ulaanbaatar

Aimags (provinces) of Mongolia

Description

Returns the 21 aimags and the capital, Ulaanbaatar, which has aimag status (type = "capital").

Usage

mn_aimags(
  region = NULL,
  resolution = c("low", "high"),
  lang = NULL,
  crs = NULL
)

Arguments

region	Keep only aimags in these economic regions, such as "Western" or "Khangai region". You can also name aimags here to select them directly.
resolution	"low" (default) uses simplified boundaries that ship with the package and suit most maps. "high" uses full-resolution boundaries, downloaded once (about 10 MB) and cached; see mn_cache_dir().
lang	Language of the name column: "en" (English, as in NSO tables), "mn" (Cyrillic) or "mns" (Latin with diacritics, MNS 5217). Defaults to getOption("mongolmaps.lang", "en").
crs	Coordinate reference system of the result. NULL (default) keeps longitude/latitude (EPSG:4326). Use "albers", "lcc" or "utm" for a projection suited to Mongolia (see mn_crs()), or any value accepted by sf::st_crs().

Value

An sf tibble; see mn_admin() for the columns.
