Dear Helpers: I'm trying to use packages "maps" and "mapdata" (see blow) to display the research resutls on map (Mid-Atlantic region). In particular, I need to mark a number of points in the map by giving their latitude and longitude information. For instance, I would like to mark a point on (long, lat) =(75.56027, 39.09271). Also, I need to mark several cities that I suspect might not in the "world.cities" database such as Baltimore, etc. Presumably, I can do the same thing by finding out the lat and long infor of Baltimroe and add text next to the point I mark.
Thanks a billion Yihsu library(maps) library(mapdata) state.list <- c("maryland","new jersey","west virginia", "virginia","ohio","delaware","pennsylvania","kentucky","indiana","north carlina") map("state",state.list) map.cities(x=world.cities, Country="US",minpop=100000) ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
