Description-en: GNU R support for producing geographic maps
This package provides facilities for easily producing maps based on
data sets in the GNU R statistical computing environment.
.
The r-cran-maps package includes map data for the United States
(including state and county-level maps), New Zealand, and a world
map; additional maps (including a higher-resolution world map) are
available in the suggested r-cran-mapdata package.
.
The suggested r-cran-mapproj package adds facilities for calculating
geographic projections, which are used by mapmakers to compensate for
the inaccuracies inherent in projecting a spheroid's surface onto a
two-dimensional plane.
