#' @title To draw line segments between locations on map by distance.

#' @description
#' Given a points set as Geographic locations in a data.frame, extends ggplot2 functionality to
#' draw a line from location to location with defined criterion of distance in km. The concept is inhered from persist homology.
#' The linkage in resulting figures can be used to recognize patterns or cluster of points.
#' Compare to ggplot2 package, plotly package might be better for this functionality because the linkage
#' can be shown on the globe instead of a flat figure. To the purpose of the package, this layer
#' attempt to show the capability of ggplot on a small scale data instead of global data.
#'
#' @param d the magnitude of real Geo distance (in km) used as the criterion to link two locations
#' @param mapping Set of aesthetic mappings created by [aes()] or
#' [aes_()]. If specified and `inherit.aes = TRUE` (the
#' default), it is combined with the default mapping at the top level of the
#' plot. You must supply `mapping` if there is no plot mapping.
#' @param data The data to be displayed in this layer. There are three
#' options:
#'
#' If `NULL`, the default, the data is inherited from the plot
#' data as specified in the call to [ggplot()].
#'
#' A `data.frame`, or other object, will override the plot
#' data. All objects will be fortified to produce a data frame. See
#' [fortify()] for which variables will be created.
#'
#' A `function` will be called with a single argument,
#' the plot data. The return value must be a `data.frame`, and
#' will be used as the layer data.
#' @param geom The geometric object to use display the data
#' @param position Position adjustment, either as a string, or the result of
#' a call to a position adjustment function.
#' @param na.rm If `FALSE`, the default, missing values are removed with
#' a warning. If `TRUE`, missing values are silently removed.
#' @param show.legend logical. Should this layer be included in the legends?
#' `NA`, the default, includes if any aesthetics are mapped.
#' `FALSE` never includes, and `TRUE` always includes.
#' It can also be a named logical vector to finely select the aesthetics to
#' display.
#' @param inherit.aes If `FALSE`, overrides the default aesthetics,
#' rather than combining with them. This is most useful for helper functions
#' that define both data and aesthetics and shouldn't inherit behaviour from
#' the default plot specification, e.g. [borders()].
#' @param ... Other arguments passed on to [layer()]. These are
#' often aesthetics, used to set an aesthetic to a fixed value, like
#' `colour = "red"` or `size = 3`. They may also be parameters
#' to the paired geom/stat.
