Dear All,
I need help with 2d- Density plots (ggplot2)...
I'm trying to plot ecological distribution of some species of organisms i'm
studying over the Arabian/Persian Gulf. Here is a sample of code i've
tried,
Backround layer
nc <- get_map("Persian Gulf", zoom = 6, maptype = 'terrain', language =
"English")
ncmap <- ggmap(nc, extent = "device")
Other layers
ncmap+
stat_density2d(data=sample.data3, aes(x=long, y=lat, fill=..level..,
alpha=..level..),geom="polygon")+
geom_point(data=sample.data3, aes(x=long, y=lat))+
geom_point(aes(x =50.626444, y = 26.044472), color="red", size = 4)+
scale_fill_gradient(low = "green", high = "red") + scale_alpha(range =
c(0.00, 0.25), guide = FALSE)
but , i will like to use the stat_density2d to show the distributions of
hundreds of species (which are recorded in columns e.g SP1....SPn) over the
water body rather than just displaying latitude and longitude.
Also, is it possible to restrict my heat map to just the water body ? I'll
appreciate any help and recommendations i can get on this please
I will also appreciate any suggestion on alternative way to achieve this.
Here is a link to stackoverflow where I initially asked the question with
an
image of what the problem look like.
