Like map
, but labels the regions.
map.text(database, regions = ".", exact = FALSE, labels, cex = 0.75,
add = FALSE, move = FALSE, ...)
If add = FALSE
, a map is drawn by calling map
.
Then the label for each region is placed at the centroid of the region
polygon.
The return value is a map object, as from map
.
