micromapST (version 1.1.1)

SeoulSKoreaBG: Seoul South Korea border group datasets to support creating micromaps for the 25 districts in the Korean city of Seoul.

Description

The micromapST function has the ability to generate linked micromaps for any geographical area. To specify the geographical area, the bordGrp call argument is used to specify the border group dataset for the geographical area. The SeoulSKoreaBG border group dataset supports creating linked micromaps for the 25 districts in the city of Seoul South Korea. When the bordGrp call argument is set to SeoulSKoreaBG, the appropriate name table (county names and abbreviations) and the boundary data for the 25 districts are loaded in micromapST. The user's data is then linked to the boundary data via the district's name, abbreviated or ID based on the table below.

Arguments

Details

The SeoulSKoreaBG border group contains the following data.frames::

The Seoul district border group contains 25 district sub-areas. Each district has a row in the areaNamesAbbrsIDs data.frame and a set of polygons in the areaVisBorders data.frame datasets. No regions or L2 boundaries are defined for the Seoul district border group. The RegVisBorders and and L2VisBorders data.frames are set the L3VisBorders data.frame. The regional feature is disabled. The L3VisBorders dataset contains the outline of the city of Seoul.

The details on each of these data.frame structures can be found in the "bordGrp" section of this document. The areaNamesAbbrsIDs data.frame provides the linkages to the boundary data for each sub-area (district) using the fullname, abbreviation, and numerical identifier for each country to the data based on the setting of the rowNames call parameter.

A column or the data.frame row.names must match one of the types of names in the areaNamesAbbrsIDs data.frame name table. If the data row does not match a value in the name table, an warning is issued and the data is ignored. If no data is present for a sub-area (district) in the name table, the sub-area is mapped but not colored. The following are a list of the names, abbreviations, and ids for each country in the SeoulSKoreaBG border group.
