fill_choropleth: A Choropleth Filling Function

In andrewcberkley/EarthTimeR: Tools for formatting data and ingesting it into EarthTime

Description

Occasionally you'll encounter a dataset that only has a value of interest at a single point in time, but you'd like to maintain that value for the duration of the timeline (e.g., discovery of a rare earth mineral deposit). This function allows you to create a wide dataframe that will maintain the value through the entire timeline. Please note that this is not a substitute for statistical techniques or to handle missing values. For those such instances, use the interpolate_choropleth() function.

Usage

fill_choropleth(dataframe)

Arguments

dataframe

Specify the name of the dataframe that you'd like to fill.

Examples

## Not run: 
filled_df <- fill_choropleth(dataframe)

## End(Not run)
