worldtilegrid: A ggplot2 Geom for World Tile Grids

In hrbrmstr/worldtilegrid: A ggplot2 Geom for World Tile Grids

Description

A "tile grid map" is a cartogram that uses same-sized tiles in approximate, relative positions of each other to represent a world map. The world tile grid relative position reference system used by this 'ggplot2' 'Geom/Stat' was the original work of 'Jon Schwabish' and converted to 'CSV' by 'Maarten Lambrechts'.
