In cmpear/Earthquakes: Analyzes and Visualizes Earthquake Data

Earthquakes

This package is built for retrieving, cleaning, analyzing and visualizing earthquake data gathered by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Presenting this package does three things:

Retrieve and Clean Data

This package has the raw quake data from the NOAA stored as a text file in /inst/ext/quakes.txt; and a cleaned version of the data stored in /data/tremors.rda (there is already a builtin dataset named 'quakes'). This package also includes several functions for cleaning the raw data.

Create geom_timeline and geom_timeline_labels

This package has two geoms for creating a timeline visualizing the quake data. It also supports creating several timelines simultaneously by including a y variable in the aesthetics. The labels geom simply adds labels to a n_max cases from the data (the n_max largest or random).

Creates a map file for visualizing quake data

This package also includes an interacting mapping function using leaflet for visualizing geospatial quake data.
