A framework for creating HTML widgets that render in various contexts including the R console, 'R Markdown' documents, and 'Shiny' web applications.
Provides extensions for packages 'leaflet' & 'mapdeck', many of which are used by package 'mapview'. Focus is on functionality readily available in Geographic Information Systems such as 'Quantum GIS'. Includes functions to display coordinates of mouse pointer position, query image values via mouse pointer and zoom-to-layer buttons. Additionally, provides a feature type agnostic function to add points, lines, polygons to a map.
Create and customize interactive maps using the 'Leaflet' JavaScript library and the 'htmlwidgets' package. These maps can be used directly from the R console, from 'RStudio', in Shiny applications and R Markdown documents.
Create small multiples of several leaflet web maps with (optional) synchronised panning and zooming control. When syncing is enabled all maps respond to mouse actions on one map. This allows side-by-side comparisons of different attributes of the same geometries. Syncing can be adjusted so that any combination of maps can be synchronised.
Quickly and conveniently create interactive visualisations of spatial data with or without background maps. Attributes of displayed features are fully queryable via pop-up windows. Additional functionality includes methods to visualise true- and false-color raster images and bounding boxes.
