Hi R-geo users, I do hope this is a simple task for you, for me, a beginner, it's very difficult. When I plot my positions (of recaptured fish) in a map, the resolution is completely wrong, and the points "clings up in lines" (horizontal and vertical), and looks very funny. The positions I try to plot are not at all at lines. library(maps) library(mapdata) par(bg="white",mar=c(3,1,1,1)) map('worldHires',xlim=c(30.40,30.65),ylim=c(70.60,70.70),type="n") rist1 <-read.table("C:\\rist1.txt") colnames(rist1)<-c("lon","lat") points(rist1$lon,rist1$lat,col="black") map('worldHires',xlim=c(30.45,30.33),ylim=c(70.60,70.70),col="peach puff",fill=T,add=T) axis(1,c(30.40,30.45,30.50,30.55,30.60),c("30°24'E","30°27'E","30°30'E","30°33'E","30°36'E")) axis(2,c(70.60,70.65,70.70),c("70°36'N","70°39'N","70°42'N"),las=1)
The rist1 looks like this: 30.500172222 70.666672222 30.500186111 70.666727778 30.450075 70.650263889 30.466930556 70.650161111 30.466930556 70.650161111 30.483411111 70.650144444 30.483505556 70.650125 30.4836 70.650105556 30.500266667 70.650052778 30.516844444 70.650016667 30.566852778 70.633472222 30.583436111 70.633441667 Etc etc Is there a setting I have misused? I would be very grateful for som help!
