Making Beautiful And Effective Maps In R (MAPR04)

Making Beautiful And Effective Maps In R (MAPR04)

https://www.prstatistics.com/course/making-beautiful-and-effective-maps-in-r-mapr04/

23rd - 24th February 2023

The aim of the course is to show you how to use R to make pretty, yet
appealing maps using the R programming language. Several R packages
related to spatial data processing and visualization will be
introduced during the course. The course will teach you how create
publication-ready static maps, animated maps, interactive maps, and
simple map applications using a mixture of lectures and computer
exercises.

By the end of the course participants should:

Understand the basic concepts behind the tmap package
Be able to create a variety types of static maps, including raster
maps, choropleth maps, and point maps
Know how to create interactive maps and simple map applications using
the shiny package
Be able to create facet maps and map animations to represent
spatiotemporal phenomenon
Know how to utilize  specific-purpose mapping packages to create
cartograms or grid maps
Have the confidence to apply map making skills to their own projects
