mf_map_symb_choro: Plot symbols with choropleth coloration

Description

mf_map() with symb_choro type creates symbols that reflect modalities of a first qualitative variable and colored to reflect the classification of a second variable.

This map types uses two variables and some arguments need to be set for both variables (see Details).

For polygons, centroids are used to plot symbols. This map type is not available for lines.

Usage

For polygons and points:

mf_map(x, var, type = "symb_choro",
       pch, cex = 2, lwd = 0.7, border, val_order,
       pal, rev = FALSE, breaks = "quantile", nbreaks,
       pch_na = 4, cex_na = 1, col_na = "white",
       alpha, expandBB, extent, bg, add = TRUE, leg_*)

Value

x is (invisibly) returned.

Arguments

x

object of class sf (polygons or points)

var

names of the variables to map. The first value refers to the symbols categories, the second one to the choropleth coloration.

type

"symb_choro"

pch

a vector of types of symbols, see pch. The length of pch should match the number of modalities.

cex

a vector of sizes for symbols. The length of cex should match the number of modalities.

lwd

border width of symbols

border

border color for symbols, a hex code or color name given by colors. The default color is the background color (see mf_theme).

val_order

modalities order in the legend, a character vector that matches var modalities. Default to alphabetic order of modalities.

pal

a set of colors (hex codes) or a palette name. Palette names can be obtained with hcl.pals. The default palette is the pal_seq palette (see mf_theme).

rev

if pal is a palette name, whether the ordering of the colors should be reversed (TRUE) or not (FALSE)

breaks

either a numeric vector with the actual breaks, or a classification method name. The main methods are 'quantile', 'equal', 'msd', 'ckmeans' (natural breaks), 'Q6' and 'geom'. See mf_get_breaks for details.

nbreaks

number of classes

pch_na

type of symbol for missing values, see pch

cex_na

size of symbol for missing values

col_na

color for missing values, a hex code or a color name given by colors

alpha, expandBB, extent, bg, add

arguments described in mf_map

leg_*

legend arguments described in mf_map. See details for arguments with two values.

Details

Legend arguments that need two values are: 'leg_title', 'leg_no_data'. The first value refers to the symbols legend, the second one to the choropleth legend.
