⚠️There's a newer version (1.5.1) of this package.Take me there.
RgoogleMaps (version 1.1.9.13)
Overlays on Google map tiles in R
Description
This package serves two purposes: (i) Provide a
comfortable R interface to query the Google server for static
maps, and (ii) Use the map as a background image to overlay
plots within R. This requires proper coordinate scaling. NOTE:
To do anything but downloading static map tiles, RgoogleMaps
needs EITHER png OR ReadImages OR rimage installed ! png
(default) is your package if you prefer png file format and
ReadImages or rimage if you prefer jpg format. In the latter
cases, you will also need the libjpeg library installed.
