In maianhdang/noaa.visualise: NOAA Earthquakes Processing and Visualising

This is noaa.visualise package, working with the NOAA Significant Earthquakes dataset to support the process of visualising and gaining information, including functions to:

• Cleaning and filtering data
• Plot the significant earthquakes in NOAA datasets by timeline
• Plot the significant earthquakes in NOAA datasets by longitude and latitude

Package Structure

The packages includes the below groups:

Group | Functions ----------------------| ---------------------------- Cleaning the raw data | eq_clean_data(), eq_location_clean(), eq_country_filter() Visualisation tools | geom_timeline(), geom_timeline_lable(), stat_timeline(), theme_timeline() Mapping tools | eq_map(), eq_create_label()

Cleaning the raw data

To make the data appropriate to visualize by the tools provided in the package. You should clean the data.

geom_timeline and geom_timeline_label

These geom are used altogether with the gglot2. You can choose the visualized timezone by xmin and xmax parameters. Mutiple information could be set by size and color (similar to other ggplot2 geoms). geom_timeline_label would add the LOCATION_NAME to the timeline, the number of label would be assigned to n_max largest earthquakes.

Visualize earthquakes in the map

The earthquakes could be visualized on the geographical maps, with specific pop-up information, with the eq_map. The eq_create_label could be used together to create more meaningful popup texts.
