country_choropleth: Create a country-level choropleth

In trulia/choroplethr: Simplify the Creation of Choropleth Maps in R

Description

The map used is country.map in the choroplethrMaps package. See country.regions for an object which can help you coerce your regions into the required format.

Usage

country_choropleth(df, title = "", legend = "", buckets = 7,
  zoom = NULL)

Arguments

df	A data.frame with a column named "region" and a column named "value". Elements in the "region" column must exactly match how regions are named in the "region" column in ?country.map.
title	An optional title for the map.
legend	An optional name for the legend.
buckets	The number of equally sized buckets to places the values in. A value of 1 will use a continuous scale, and a value in [2, 9] will use that many buckets.
zoom	An optional vector of countries to zoom in on. Elements of this vector must exactly match the names of countries as they appear in the "region" column of ?country.regions

Examples

# demonstrate default options
data(df_pop_country)
country_choropleth(df_pop_country, "2012 World Bank Populate Estimates")

# demonstrate continuous scale
country_choropleth(df_pop_country, "2012 World Bank Populate Estimates", buckets=1)

# demonstrate zooming
country_choropleth(df_pop_country,
                   "2012 World Bank Population Estimates",
                   buckets=1,
                   zoom=c("united states of america", "canada", "mexico"))
