Details

This function is a simple wrapper to functions in the ggmap package which returns a map of all of the stations at a NERRS reserve. The zoom argument may have to be chosen through trial and error depending on the spatial extent of the reserve. A local data file included with the package is used to get the latitude and longitude values of each station. The files includes only active stations as of January 2015.
