World Map

Description

Map used to perform the validation of the original geographical coordinates at the lowest administrative level (e.g. country). Names were edited to match the plantR default gazetteer, using the same plantR function used for locality editing (i.e. fixLoc()).

Usage

data(worldMap)

Format

A Multipolygon 'sf' object with 256 features

Details

Original polygons were simplified (tolerance: 0.001 decimal degrees) to make maps smaller in size and thus less burdensome for the geographical validation procedures.

Reference system: WSG84
