Leaflet Map to static and saving it (as pdf) [R] - r

How would one convert leaflet map to a static plot and then save it as pdf?,
I have createa a large leaflet map, that has over 150 MB, using mapshot does not work because it is very large. I think that convert it to static plot and then save it is more propriate.
I provided example:
library(leaflet)
library(tidyverse)
URL2 <- "https://biogeo.ucdavis.edu/data/gadm3.6/Rsp/gadm36_FRA_2_sp.rds"
data2 <- readRDS(url(URL2))
URL3 <- "https://biogeo.ucdavis.edu/data/gadm3.6/Rsp/gadm36_ESP_2_sp.rds"
data3 <- readRDS(url(URL3))
URL4 <- "https://biogeo.ucdavis.edu/data/gadm3.6/Rsp/gadm36_PRT_2_sp.rds"
data4 <- readRDS(url(URL4))
URL5 <- "https://biogeo.ucdavis.edu/data/gadm3.6/Rsp/gadm36_GBR_2_sp.rds"
data5 <- readRDS(url(URL5))
random_long_lat <-
data.frame(
long = sample(runif(300, min = -2.5, max = 15.99), replace = F),
lat = sample(runif(300, min = 42.69, max = 59.75), replace = F)
)
all <- rbind(data2, data3, data4, data5)
all#data <-
all#data %>%
mutate(counts = rnorm(nrow(all), 100, sd = 20))
cuts <- c(0, 5, 20, 40, 80, 150, max(all#data$counts))
cuts <- colorBin("Greens", domain = all$counts, bins = cuts)
m <-
leaflet() %>%
addProviderTiles("CartoDB.Positron") %>%
addPolygons(data=all, stroke = TRUE, color = "white", weight="", smoothFactor = 0.95,
fillOpacity = 0.65, fillColor = ~cuts(all$counts)) %>%
addLegend(pal = cuts,
values = all$counts,
labFormat = labelFormat(suffix = " "),
opacity = 0.85, title = "How many point were counted in each region", position = "topright")
I would like to convert map m to static map, and then save it as pdf, however I can quite figure out how.
Using command for example:
library(mapview)
mapshot(m, file = "maps.pdf")
Is very slow and when saving map that has more than 100MB usually returns an error.

Counting how many point are in the polygon of region [R]

I would like to ask how to calculate number of point that are in some region when we have longtitue and latitude variables of point and polygon of country and its regions.
I provided example below:
I would like to calculate how many point are in what regions (including zero when there is no point) and than add this variables to data2#data object so one can use count measures to fill each regions polygons.

I would like the result so one can calculate something like this:
all#data <-
all#data %>%
mutate(counts = rnorm(nrow(all), 100, sd = 20))
cuts <- c(0, 5, 20, 40, 80, 150, max(all#data$counts))

addLegend(pal = cuts,
values = all$counts,
labFormat = labelFormat(suffix = " "),
opacity = 0.85, title = "How many point were counted in each region", position = "topright")
however I dont know is it posible to calculate number of point in each regions having just coordinances?
If you transform the points and France polygons to sf objects, you can use st_intersects() to count the number of points in each polygon.
Note that I updated your sample points so that each quintile break in cuts is unique. With your original data, the first three quintiles were just 0 so the coloring in the leaflet map didn't work.
new sample data

lat = sample(runif(1000, min = 42.69, max = 49.75), replace = F)
)
make sf objects and count points in polygons
library(sf)
data_sf <- data2 %>% st_as_sf()
random_long_lat_sf <- random_long_lat %>%
st_as_sf(coords = c("long", "lat"), crs = 4326)
data_sf_summary <- data_sf %>%
mutate(counts = lengths(st_intersects(., random_long_lat_sf)))
define breaks for legend and draw map
cuts <- quantile(data_sf_summary$counts, probs = seq(0, 1, 0.2))
cuts <- colorBin("Greens", domain = data_sf_summary$counts, bins = cuts)

opacity = 0.85, title = "How many point were counted in each region", position = "topright")
Also note that tmap package, which lets you switch between static and interactive maps using the same syntax (which resembles ggplot syntax).
same map with tmap:
library(tmap)
tmap_mode("view") # make map interactive
tm_shape(data_sf_summary) +
tm_polygons(col = "counts",
n = 5,
palette = "Greens",
title = "How many point were counted in each region")
static map with tmap:
library(tmap)
tmap_mode("plot") # make map static
tm_shape(data_sf_summary) +
tm_polygons(col = "counts",
n = 5,
palette = "Greens",
title = "How many point were counted in each region") +
tm_layout(legend.position = c("right","top"))
For multiple countries
First create new sample points that cover Europe:
random_long_lat <-
data.frame(
long = sample(runif(1000, min = -7.5, max = 19.99), replace = F),
lat = sample(runif(1000, min = 38.69, max = 60.75), replace = F)
)
all <- rbind(data2, data3, data4, data5)
Then make the sf objects and find the counts of points in every polygon:
all_sf <- all %>% st_as_sf()
random_long_lat_sf <- random_long_lat %>%
st_as_sf(coords = c("long", "lat"), crs = 4326)
all_sf_summary <- all_sf %>%
mutate(counts = lengths(st_intersects(., random_long_lat_sf)))
qtm(random_long_lat_sf)
Option 1: Choose maps from a list object by name using the NAME_0 column.
tmap_mode("view") # make maps interactive
list_of_maps <- map(unique(all_sf_summary$NAME_0),
~ tm_shape(all_sf_summary %>%
filter(NAME_0 == .x)) + # filter the data for your country of interest
tm_polygons(col = "counts",
n = 5,
palette = "Greens",
alpha = 0.85,
border.col = NA,
title = "How many point were counted in each region") +
tm_layout(legend.position = c("right","top"))) %>%
set_names(unique(all_sf_summary$NAME_0))
list_of_maps[['France']]
list_of_maps[['Portugal']]
Option 2: Show all the maps at once
### all maps at once
tm_shape(all_sf_summary) + # filter the data for your country of interest
tm_polygons(col = "counts",
n = 5,
palette = "Greens",
alpha = 0.85,
border.col = NA,
title = "How many point were counted in each region") +
tm_layout(legend.position = c("right","top")) +
tm_facets(by = c("NAME_0"), ncol = 2, showNA = FALSE)

How to create a leaflet choropleth map of US counties

With the code below I get my dataframe with US county data
library(raster)
library(leaflet)
library(tidyverse)
# Get USA polygon data
USA <- getData("GADM", country = "usa", level = 2)
### Get data
mydata <- read.csv("https://www.betydb.org/miscanthus_county_avg_yield.csv",
stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
My object is to crate an interactive leaflet choropleth map of Avg_yield so first I fortify my USA polygon data
library(rgeos)
library(maptools)
library(ggplot2)
states.shp.f <- fortify(USA, region = "NAME_2")
Then I subset my dataset and merge it with the fortified:
mydata2<-mydata[,c("COUNTY_NAME","Avg_yield")]
colnames(mydata2)[1]<-"id"
## merge shape file with data
merge.shp.coef <- merge(states.shp.f, mydata2, by = "id")
but now I have a dataset with every county name many times and also some counties have different values of Avg_yield. Whats the proper way to process those data in order to use the leaflet code like:
leaflet() %>%
addProviderTiles("OpenStreetMap.Mapnik") %>%
setView(lat = 39.8283, lng = -98.5795, zoom = 4) %>%
addPolygons(data = USA, stroke = FALSE, smoothFactor = 0.2, fillOpacity = 0.3,
fillColor = ~mypal(mydata$Avg_yield),
popup = paste("Region: ", USA$NAME_2, "<br>",
"Avg_yield: ", mydata$Avg_yield, "<br>")) %>%
addLegend(position = "bottomleft", pal = mypal, values = mydata$Avg_yield,
title = "Avg_yield",
opacity = 1)
The propoer way to do this is to transform your polygon object into a sf object
with st_as_sf()
Here you have a working example :
(I did used some other data for the polygon, I thought yours too precise and require a lot of resources, plus I made it work with shiny)
library(leaflet)
library(tidyverse)
library(ggplot2)
library(sf)
library(shiny)
USA <- st_read(dsn = '[your path]/cb_2018_us_county_500k.shp')
### Get data
mydata <- read.csv("https://www.betydb.org/miscanthus_county_avg_yield.csv",
stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
states_sf <- st_as_sf(USA)
mydata2<-mydata[,c("COUNTY_NAME","Avg_yield")]
colnames(mydata2)[1]<-"NAME"
## merge shape file with data
states_sf_coef <- left_join(states_sf, mydata2, by = "NAME")
ui <- fluidPage(
leafletOutput("map", height = "100vh")
)
server <- function(input, output, session) {
bins <- c(0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40)
mypal <- colorBin("YlOrRd", domain = states_sf_coef$Avg_yield, bins = bins)
#Sortie map
output$map <- renderLeaflet({
leaflet()%>%
addProviderTiles("OpenStreetMap.Mapnik")%>%
setView(lat = 39.8283, lng = -98.5795, zoom = 4) %>%
addPolygons(
data = states_sf_coef,
fillColor = ~mypal(states_sf_coef$Avg_yield),
stroke = FALSE,
smoothFactor = 0.2,
fillOpacity = 0.3,
popup = paste("Region: ", states_sf_coef$NAME_2, "<br>",
"Avg_yield: ", states_sf_coef$Avg_yield, "<br>"))%>%
addLegend(position = "bottomleft",
pal = mypal,
values = states_sf_coef$Avg_yield,
title = "Avg_yield",
opacity = 1)
})
}

Adding an interactive filter to a layered leaflet() map in R

I have created a map that has different layers for different variables, but would like to also have a selector box that allows you to select which year you view, essentially filtering the data for that particular year.
The code below makes the map based on all years data. I'd like almost the same map, but with the ability to change what year you are viewing data for (i.e. 1990, 1991, 1992, or 1993)
# get shapefiles (download shapefiles: http://www2.census.gov/geo/tiger/GENZ2014/shp/cb_2014_us_county_5m.zip)
usgeo <- st_read("~/cb_2014_us_county_5m/cb_2014_us_county_5m.shp") %>%
mutate(fips = as.numeric(paste0(STATEFP, COUNTYFP)))
### alternatively, tweak this code so you can download data directly ####
temp <- tempfile()
download.file("http://www2.census.gov/geo/tiger/GENZ2014/shp/cb_2014_us_county_5m.zip",temp)
data <- st_read(unz(temp, "cb_2014_us_county_5m.shp"))
unlink(temp)
########################################################
# create fake data
sample <- data.frame(fips = rep(as.numeric(c("37001", "37003", "37005", "37007", "37009", "37011", "37013", "37015", "37017", "37019"), 4)),
year = c(rep(1990, 10), rep(1991, 10), rep(1992, 10), rep(1993, 10)),
life = sample(1:100, 40, replace=TRUE),
income = sample(8000:1000000, 40, replace=TRUE),
pop = sample(80000:1000000, 40, replace=TRUE))
# join fake data with shapefiles
sample <- st_as_sf(sample %>% left_join(usgeo))
# drop layers (not sure why, but won't work without this)
sample$geometry <- st_zm(sample$geometry, drop = T, what = "ZM")
# change projection
sample <- sf::st_transform(sample, "+proj=longlat +datum=WGS84")
# create popups
incomepopup <- paste0("County: ", sample$NAME, ", avg income = $", sample$income)
poppopup <- paste0("County: ", sample$NAME, ", avg pop = ", sample$pop)
lifepopup <- paste0("County: ", sample$NAME, ", avg life expectancy = ", sample$life)
# create color palettes
lifePalette <- colorNumeric(palette = "Purples", domain=sample$life)
incomePalette <- colorNumeric(palette = "Reds", domain=sample$income)
popPalette <- colorNumeric(palette = "Oranges", domain=sample$pop)
# create map
leaflet(sample) %>%
addProviderTiles("CartoDB.Positron") %>%
addPolygons(stroke=FALSE,
smoothFactor = 0.2,
fillOpacity = .8,
popup = poppopup,
color = ~popPalette(sample$pop),
group = "pop") %>%
addPolygons(stroke=FALSE,
smoothFactor = 0.2,
fillOpacity = .8,
popup = lifepopup,
color = ~lifePalette(sample$life),
group = "life") %>%
addPolygons(stroke=FALSE,
smoothFactor = 0.2,
fillOpacity = .8,
popup = incomepopup,
color = ~incomePalette(sample$income),
group = "income") %>%
addLayersControl(
baseGroups=c("income", "life", "pop"),
position = "bottomleft",
options = layersControlOptions(collapsed = FALSE)
)
The first map here (and screenshotted below) shows the output of what I already have (except the data is filtered for only year == 1993). I'd like that, but without the "year" variable, and instead, an additional selector box that would allow you to select which year you want data for.

how to add points, colored according to the value of a variable, to a map?

Using these instructions: win.graph()

not from mistakes but does not do it.
welcome to SO. Generally it's a good idea to include what packages you may have loaded and more description of the problem itself.
Here's an approach using plotly. I'm using ggplot2::map_data() to generate some sample data (larger dataset) and show how it works:
library(ggplot2)
library(plotly)
dat <- map_data(map = 'county')
# map_data() is a large dataset, I'm limiting the map to 50 observations
# the coords$value field is the variable that determines the color of the mapped point
coords <- dat[sample(sample(x = 1:nrow(dat), size = 50, replace = T)), ]
coords$value <- rnorm(n = nrow(coords), mean = 10, sd = 3)
# some code to let plotly know we're plotting a map (projection etc.)
g <- list(
scope = 'usa',
projection = list(type = 'Mercator'),
showland = TRUE,
landcolor = toRGB("gray85"),
subunitwidth = 1,
countrywidth = 1,
subunitcolor = toRGB("white"),
countrycolor = toRGB("white")
)
plt <- plot_geo(locationmode = 'USA-states', sizes = c(1, 250), data = coords) %>%
add_markers(x = ~long, y = ~lat, color = ~value) %>%
layout(title = 'County Map',
geo = g)
