Mapping the earthquake epicenters and providing some annotations from NOAA earthquake data

1	eq_map(mapdata, annot_col = "DATE")

`mapdata`	A cleaned data frame with data obtained from NOAA website
`annot_col`	The name of the column from the data to be use for annotation

After downloading, reading and cleaning the dataset from NOAA site, https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/nndc/struts/form?t=101650&s=1&d=1. National Geophysical Data Center / World Data Service (NGDC/WDS): Significant Earthquake Database. National Geophysical Data Center, NOAA. doi:10.7289/V5TD9V7K. The cleaning of the data frame is done with the eq_clean_data() function of this package. The function return a map of the earthquakes epicenters (LATITUDE/LONGITUDE) and annotates each point with in pop up window containing annotation data stored in a column of the cleaned data frame. The user is able to choose which column is used for the annotation in the pop-up with this function by using the argument named "annot_col". If the "annot_col" argument is not used, then the value of the "DATE" column is used. On the map, each earthquake is shown with a circle, and the radius of the circle is proportional to the earthquake's magnitude (EQ_PRIMARY).
