fisheye

CRAN version codecov R-CMD-check

The goal of fisheye is to create base maps focusing on a specific location using an azimuthal logarithmic distance transformation.

Installation

You can install the released version of fisheye from CRAN with:

install.packages("fisheye")

Alternatively, you can install the development version of fisheye from GitHub with:

remotes::install_github("riatelab/fisheye")

Example

This is a basic example:

library(sf)
#> Linking to GEOS 3.11.1, GDAL 3.6.2, PROJ 9.1.1; sf_use_s2() is TRUE
library(fisheye)
library(mapsf)
# Import dataset
ncraw <- st_read(system.file("shape/nc.shp", package="sf"), quiet = TRUE)
nc <- st_transform(ncraw, 3857)
par(mfrow = c(1,2))
mf_map(nc, col ="grey90")
mf_map(nc[51, ], add = TRUE, col = "grey40")
mf_title("Original Map")
# transform the basemap
nc_fe  <- fisheye(nc, centre = nc[51, ])
mf_map(nc_fe, col ="grey90")
mf_map(nc_fe[51, ], add = TRUE, col = "grey40")
mf_title("Log-Azimuthal Projection")
