In qdread/qdrmapbox: Download Mapbox Raster Tiles and Georeference for Static Mapping

qdrmapbox

A minimal R package to download Mapbox raster tiles and georeference for static mapping

I wrote this R package for a SESYNC Cyberhelp blog post.

Setup

Install the package using this command:

remotes::install_github('qdread/qdrmapbox')

To use this package, you will need to sign up for a Mapbox account. Once you have an account, you will also need to create an access token. Access to the API is free up to a limit. For more details please see the blog post.

Example walkthrough

A walkthrough of downloading and georeferencing tiles, and creating a map with the resulting image, is in the blog post. Code for the walkthrough is in this repo (walkthrough.R).
