using mapdata to highlight specific countries - r

I am generating a world map and hoping to highlight some specific countries. This is my attempt:
require(mapdata)
cc <- map('world', names = TRUE, plot = FALSE)
take <- unlist(sapply(c("uk", "usa", "switzerland","new zealand",
"israel","denmark","sweden","italy",'canada'),
grep, tolower(cc), value = TRUE))
map()
map('world', regions=take, fill=TRUE, col='red', add = TRUE)
nums <- c(12,11,1,2,1,1,1,1,1)
I have two questions.
1) Is it possible to include points on this map to correspond to the variable 'nums'. Each of the numbers in 'nums' refers to the number of measurements taken from a specific country, 12 is for the UK and so on... Is it possible to include a point on the map with the radius of that point corresponding to the number in 'nums'. I know this is possible with ggplot2 but am not sure how to do it with mapdata?
2) How can I make this map look nicer i.e. there seem to be a lot of empty countries here, is there an elegant way of only including the countries that are colored?

Hm something like this?
require(mapdata)
cc <- map('world', names = TRUE, plot = FALSE)
take <- unlist(sapply(countries <- c("uk", "usa", "switzerland","new zealand",
"israel","denmark","sweden","italy",'canada'),
grep, tolower(cc), value = TRUE))
nums <- c(12,11,1,2,1,1,1,1,1)
# gc <- ggmap::geocode(countries) # a googlemaps query gives this:
gc <- structure(list(lon =
c(-3.435973, -95.712891, 8.227512, 174.885971,
34.851612, 9.501785, 18.643501, 12.56738, -106.346771), lat = c(55.378051,
37.09024, 46.818188, -40.900557, 31.046051, 56.26392, 60.128161,
41.87194, 56.130366)),
.Names = c("lon", "lat"),
class = "data.frame",
row.names = c(NA, -9L))
map(xlim=c(-150, 40), ylim=c(25, 75)) # plot only a part of the world map
map('world', regions=take, fill=TRUE, col='red', add = TRUE, )
with(gc, points(lon, lat, cex=nums, pch=19, col=rgb(0, 1, 0, .8))) # add circles

How do I map county-level data as a heatmap using FIPS codes (interactively?) in R

I am hoping to create an interactive map that will allow me to create a plot where users can change the year and variable plotted. I've seen the package tmap be used, so I'm imagining something like that, but I'd also take advice for a static map, or another approach to an interactive one. My data is much, much, richer than this, but looks something like:
example <- 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))
I'd like my output to be a map of ONLY the counties contained in my dataset (in my case, I have all the counties in North Carolina, so I don't want a map of the whole USA), that would show a heatmap of selected variables of interest (in this sample data, year, life, income, and pop. Ideally I'd like one plot with two dropdown-type menus that allow you to select what year you want to view, and which variable you want to see. A static map where I (rather than the user) defines year and variable would be helpful if you don't know how to do the interactive thing.
I've tried the following (taken from here), but it's static, which is not my ideal, and also appears to be trying to map the whole USA, so the part that's actually contained in my data (North Carolina) is very small.
library(maps)
library(ggmap)
library(mapproj)
data(county.fips)
colors = c("#F1EEF6", "#D4B9DA", "#C994C7", "#DF65B0", "#DD1C77",
"#980043")
example$colorBuckets <- as.numeric(cut(example$life, c(0, 20, 40, 60, 80,
90, 100)))
colorsmatched <- example$colorBuckets[match(county.fips$fips, example$fips)]
map("county", col = colors[colorsmatched], fill = TRUE, resolution = 0,
lty = 0, projection = "polyconic")
Here's almost the whole solution. I had hoped some package would allow mapping to be done by fips code alone, but haven't found one yet. You have to download shapefiles and merge them by fips code. This code does everything I wanted above except allow you to also filter by year. I've asking that question here, so hopefully someone will answer there.
# get shapefiles (download shapefiles [here][1] : 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, this code *should* allow you download data ###
### directly, but somethings slightly wrong. I'd love to know what. ####
# 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"))

I'm still looking for a way to add a "year" filter that would be another interactive radio-button box to filter the data by different years.

Drawing arbitrary lines on a highchart map in R (library highcharter)

I am drawing a highcharts map using the highcharter package in R. I added already some points (cities) and want to link them by drawing an additionnal beeline using the world map-coordinates.
I already managed to draw the beelines by first drawing the map, then hovering over the cities which shows me the plot-coordinates, and then redrawing the plot using the aforementioned plot-coordinates. (Watch out: I used the PLOT-coordinates and my goal is to use directly the WORLD MAP-coordinates.)
If you only have 1 or two cities, it's not a big deal. But if you have like 100 cities/points, it's annoying. I guess the answer will be something like here: Is it possible to include maplines in highcharter maps?.
Thank you!
Here my code:
library(highcharter)
library(tidyverse)
# cities with world coordinates
ca_cities <- data.frame(
name = c("San Diego", "Los Angeles", "San Francisco"),
lat = c(32.715736, 34.052235, 37.773972), # world-map-coordinates
lon = c(-117.161087, -118.243683, -122.431297) # world-map-coordinates
)
# path which I create AFTER the first drawing of the map as I get the
# plot-coordinates when I hover over the cities.
path <- "M669.63,-4963.70,4577.18,-709.5,5664.42,791.88"
# The goal: the path variable above should be defined using the WORLD-
# coordinates in ca_cities and not using the PLOT-coordinates.
# information for drawing the beeline
ca_lines <- data.frame(
name = "line",
path = path,
lineWidth = 2
)
# construct the map
map <- hcmap("countries/us/us-ca-all", showInLegend = FALSE) %>%
hc_add_series(data = ca_cities, type = "mappoint", name = "Cities") %>%
hc_add_series(data = ca_lines, type = "mapline", name = "Beeline", color = "blue")
map
See picture here
After several hours, I found an answer to my problem. There are maybe easier ways, but I'm going to post my version using the rgdal-package.
The idea is to convert first the world map-coordinates to the specific map's coordinate system (ESRI) and then back-transform all adjustments from highcharts:
library(highcharter)
library(tidyverse)
library(rgdal) # you also need rgdal
# cities with world coordinates
ca_cities <- data.frame(
name = c("San Diego", "Los Angeles", "San Francisco"),
lat = c(32.715736, 34.052235, 37.773972),
lon = c(-117.161087, -118.243683, -122.431297)
)
# pre-construct the map
map <- hcmap("countries/us/us-ca-all", showInLegend = FALSE)
# extract the transformation-info
trafo <- map$x$hc_opts$series[[1]]$mapData$`hc-transform`$default
# convert to coordinates
ca_cities2 <- ca_cities %>% select("lat", "lon")
coordinates(ca_cities2) <- c("lon", "lat")
# convert world geosystem WGS 84 into transformed crs
proj4string(ca_cities2) <- CRS("+init=epsg:4326") # WGS 84
ca_cities3 <- spTransform(ca_cities2, CRS(trafo$crs)) #
# re-transform coordinates according to the additionnal highcharts-parameters
image_coords_x <- (ca_cities3$lon - trafo$xoffset) * trafo$scale * trafo$jsonres + trafo$jsonmarginX
image_coords_y <- -((ca_cities3$lat - trafo$yoffset) * trafo$scale * trafo$jsonres + trafo$jsonmarginY)
# construct the path
path <- paste("M",
paste0(paste(image_coords_x, ",", sep = ""),
image_coords_y, collapse = ","),
sep = "")
# information for drawing the beeline
ca_lines <- data.frame(
name = "line",
path = path,
lineWidth = 2
)
# add series
map <- map %>%
hc_add_series(data = ca_cities, type = "mappoint", name = "Cities") %>%
hc_add_series(data = ca_lines, type = "mapline", name = "Beeline", color = "blue")
map

how to plot specific rows based on a match of row name in another color

I have a data like this
data<- structure(list(CountM = c(45.64666293, 59.36843063, 60.03210967,
46.82944874, 43.03029792, 61.84389291, 43.03029792, 52.67732934,
46.64235489, 51.49190061, 44.43427349), CountB = c(45.40011971,
58.8366324, 63.25364716, 47.25941075, 46.48880606, 61.84736213,
46.48880606, 52.88026788, 51.98626832, 50.02266849, 51.5420982
)), .Names = c("CountM", "CountB"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c("India",
"USA", "USA2", "USA3", "USA4", "Holand", "Germany", "Italy",
"China", "Rusa", "India2"))
if I want to plot it , I can do it
plot(data$CountM,data$CountB)
I want to plot USA3, Italy and India2 with another color.
how can I do it?
There are many ways to go about coloring points in a plot but in this case I believe the simple route of adding colored points works best.
plot(data$CountM,data$CountB) # Plot
interested_in <- c("USA3","Italy","India2")
# Adding colored points
these <- which(rownames(data) %in% interested_in)
points(data[these,"CountM"], data[these,"CountB"],
pch = 16, # for a filled circle
col = c("red","blue","orange")) # for 3 colors given "these" has length 3
# Adding labels
text(data[these,"CountM"], data[these,"CountB"], # x and y points
labels = interested_in, # the actual text
pos = 3, # 1,2,3,4 = below,left,top,right
cex = 1.1, # sizing
font = 2) # bolding
Edit for non overlapping labels
#install.packages("maptools") # run once in your console, no "#"
library(maptools)
pointLabel(data[these,"CountM"], data[these,"CountB"], labels = interested_in,
pos = 3, # 1,2,3,4 = below,left,top,right
cex = 1.1, # sizing
font = 2)

R: Maps with Time Slider?

Is there a way to implement a time slider for Leaflet or any other interactive map library in R? I have data arranged in a time series, and would like to integrate that into a "motion" map where the plot points change dynamically over time.
I was thinking of breaking my data into pieces, using subset to capture the corresponding data table for each month. But how would I move between the different data sets corresponding to different months?
As it stands now, I took the average and plotted those points, but I'd rather produce a map that integrates the time series.
Here is my code so far:
data<-read.csv("Stericycle Waste Data.csv")
library(reshape2)
library(ggplot2)
library(plyr)
library(ggmap)
names(data)<-c("ID1","ID2", "Site.Address", "Type", "City", "Province", "Category", "Density", "Nov-14", "Dec-14", "Jan-15", "Feb-15", "Mar-15", "Apr-15", "May-15", "Jun-15", "Jul-15", "Aug-15", "Sep-15", "Oct-15", "Nov-15", "Dec-15", "Jan-16")
data<-melt(data, c("ID1","ID2", "Site.Address","Type", "City", "Province", "Category", "Density"))
data<-na.omit(data)
data_grouped<-ddply(data, c("Site.Address", "Type","City", "Province", "Category", "Density", "variable"), summarise, value=sum(value))
names(data_grouped)<-c("Site.Address", "Type", "City", "Province", "Category", "Density", "Month", 'Waste.Mass')
dummy<-read.csv('locations-coordinates.csv')
geodata<-merge(data_grouped, dummy, by.x="Site.Address", by.y="Site.Address", all.y=TRUE)
library(leaflet)
d = geodata_avg$density_factor
d = factor(d)
cols <- rainbow(length(levels(d)), alpha=NULL)
geodata_avg$colors <- cols[unclass(d)]
newmap <- leaflet(data=geodata_avg) %>% addTiles() %>%
addCircleMarkers(lng = ~lon, lat = ~lat, weight = 1, radius = ~rank*1.1, color = ~colors, popup = paste("Site Address: ", geodata_avg$Site.Address, "<br>", "Category: ", geodata_avg$Category, "<br>", "Average Waste: ", geodata_avg$value))
newmap
Thanks in advance! Any guidance/insight would be greatly appreciated.
Recognizing this is a very old question, in case anyone's still wondering...
The package leaflet.extras2 has some functions that might help. Here's an example that uses some tidyverse functions, sf, and leaflet.extras2::addPlayback() to generate and animate some interesting GPS tracks near Ottawa.
library(magrittr)
library(tibble)
library(leaflet)
library(leaflet.extras2)
library(sf)
library(lubridate)
# how many test data points to create
num_points <- 100
# set up an sf object with a datetime column matching each point to a date/time
# make the GPS tracks interesting
df <- tibble::tibble(temp = (1:num_points),
lat = seq(from = 45, to = 46, length.out = num_points) + .1*sin(temp),
lon = seq(from = -75, to = -75.5, length.out = num_points) + .1*cos(temp),
datetime = seq(from = lubridate::ymd_hms("2021-09-01 8:00:00"),
to = lubridate::ymd_hms("2021-09-01 9:00:00"),
length.out = num_points)) %>%
sf::st_as_sf(coords = c("lon", "lat"), crs = "WGS84", remove = FALSE)
# create a leaflet map and add an animated marker
leaflet() %>%
addTiles() %>%
leaflet.extras2::addPlayback(data = df,
time = "datetime",
options = leaflet.extras2::playbackOptions(speed = 100))
Here is an answer that may be of help.
Alternatively, you could provide the time series of a point as a popup graph using mapview::popupGraph. It is also possible to provide interactive, htmlwidget based graphs to popupGraph

How to create a world map in R with specific countries filled in?

I would like to use R to generate a very basic world map with a specific set of countries filled with a red colour to indicate that they are malaria endemic countries.
I have a list of these countries in a data frame but am struggling to overlay them on a world map.
I have tried using the wrld_simpl object and also the joinCountryData2Map method in the rworldmap package.
I would comment on this answer to prevent addition of a possibly redundant question but I do not have enough reputation at the moment, apologies for this.
https://stackoverflow.com/a/9102797/1470099
I am having difficulty understanding the arguments given to the plot() command - I wondered if there was just an easy way to tell R to plot all of the country NAMEs in my list on the wrld_simpl map instead of using grepl() etc. etc.
plot(wrld_simpl,
col = c(gray(.80), "red")[grepl("^U", wrld_simpl#data$NAME) + 1])
Using the rworldmap package, you could use the following:
library(rworldmap)
theCountries <- c("DEU", "COD", "BFA")
# These are the ISO3 names of the countries you'd like to plot in red
malDF <- data.frame(country = c("DEU", "COD", "BFA"),
malaria = c(1, 1, 1))
# malDF is a data.frame with the ISO3 country names plus a variable to
# merge to the map data
malMap <- joinCountryData2Map(malDF, joinCode = "ISO3",
nameJoinColumn = "country")
# This will join your malDF data.frame to the country map data
mapCountryData(malMap, nameColumnToPlot="malaria", catMethod = "categorical",
missingCountryCol = gray(.8))
# And this will plot it, with the trick that the color palette's first
# color is red
EDIT: Add other colors and include picture
## Create multiple color codes, with Burkina Faso in its own group
malDF <- data.frame(country = c("DEU", "COD", "BFA"),
malaria = c(1, 1, 2))
## Re-merge
malMap <- joinCountryData2Map(malDF, joinCode = "ISO3",
nameJoinColumn = "country")
## Specify the colourPalette argument
mapCountryData(malMap, nameColumnToPlot="malaria", catMethod = "categorical",
missingCountryCol = gray(.8), colourPalette = c("red", "blue"))
Try using googleVis package and use gvisGeoMap Functions
e.g.
G1 <- gvisGeoMap(Exports,locationvar='Country',numvar='Profit',options=list(dataMode='regions'))
plot(G1)
library(maptools)
data(wrld_simpl)
myCountries = wrld_simpl#data$NAME %in% c("Australia", "United Kingdom", "Germany", "United States", "Sweden", "Netherlands", "New Zealand")
plot(wrld_simpl, col = c(gray(.80), "red")[myCountries+1])
