In RgoogleMaps: Overlays on Static Maps

`plotmap` <-structure(function# easy to use wrapper function
###note the similarity in name to PBSmapping::plotMap
###This function is the workhorse of the package RgoogleMaps. It overlays plot on background image of map tile.

(
  lat, ##<< latitude values to be overlaid OR string to be geocoded!
  lon, ##<< longitude values to be overlaid
  map, ##<< optional map object 
  zoom = NULL, ##<< Google maps zoom level
  API = c("google","OSM","bing", "google2")[1], ##<< choice  of map tile API
  maptype = c("roadmap","mobile","satellite","terrain","hybrid","mapmaker-roadmap","mapmaker-hybrid")[2], ##<< defines the type of map to construct. There are several possible maptype values, including satellite, terrain, hybrid, and mobile. 
  destfile, ##<<  File to save the map image to
  data, ##<< data to look up variables in
  alpha = 1, ##<< opacity
  col = 1, ##<< plot color
  apiKey = NULL, ##<< optional API key (allows for higher rate of downloads for Google); mandatory for Bing maps
  verbose = 0, ##<< level of verbosity 
  ... ##<< further arguments to be passed to \code{PlotOnStaticMap}
