Examples

# NOT RUN {
# Example 1: An MDS map of Dutch dialects
data(distDutch)
dutch_points <- get_points(system.file("extdata", "DutchKML.kml", package="dialectR"))
dutch_polygons <- get_polygons(system.file("extdata", "DutchKML.kml", package="dialectR"))
mds_map(distDutch, dutch_points, dutch_polygons)
# }
