alaska map? - answers

Thanks very much to Roger Bivand and Greg Snow who wrote, respectively:
map("world2", "USA:alaska")

gives the low resolution, using the "world" database is split on the date
line. The mapdata package has better resolution.
and
Look at:

http://www.census.gov/geo/www/cob/bdy_files.html

There are shapefiles of the 50 states there, outlines, counties, and
others.

Hello,

I've installed the Becker and Wilks maps, mapdata, and mapproj packages
so I can begin
to try these out for some work I need to do on a map of
Alaska but I don't know where to find a map of Alaska. Has anyone solved
this already and could help?

Thanks very much in advance,

Caitlin
