Create the dots for a dot-density map and add these to the current map. Dot-density maps are made to display count data. For example of population counts, where each dot represents n persons. The dots are returned as a SpatVector. It there is an active graphics device, the dots are added to it with points.
# S4 method for SpatVector
dots(x, field, size, ...)SpatVector (invisibly)
SpatVector
character of numeric indicating field name. Or numeric vector of the same length as x
positive number indicating the number of cases associated with each dot
graphical arguments passed to points
f <- system.file("ex/lux.shp", package="terra")
v <- vect(f)
v$population <- 1000*(1:12)^2
plot(v, lwd=3, col="light gray", border="white")
d <- dots(v, "population", 1000, col="red", cex=.75)
lines(v)
d
