create_adm_map_pdf: Creates a pdf file with maps of administrative unit locations

In michielvandijk/mapspamc: An R package to create crop distribution maps

Creates a pdf file with maps of administrative unit locations

Description

The function creates and saves a pdf file with the location of the administrative units in the ⁠/processed_data/maps/adm⁠ folder. Depending on the adm level, maps are produced for level 1 and/or level 2 administrative units. The function will automatically load the file with the polygon information on the location of administrative units, that needs to be created first by the user (see Articles).

Usage

create_adm_map_pdf(param, font_size = 3)

Arguments

param	Object of type mapspamc_par that bundles all mapspamc parameters, including core model folders, alpha-3 country code, year, spatial resolution, most detailed level at which subnational statistics are available, administrative unit level at which the model is solved and type of model.
font_size	Parameter to specify the font size of administrative unit name that is plotted on the map (default size = 3). If names are long or administrative unit polygons are small, the labels may get cluttered. Better results can be obtained by decreasing the font size.

Value

An rds file with the created grid is saved in the processed_data/maps/grid folder.
