Dear R - Mapping specialists, for a prospective publication on using date/times etc in R, we are looking for a way to draw a world map additionally with the "timezone stripes".
Thanks to Roger Bivand, it was easy to get to the world map: I've used this http://spatial.nhh.no/R/etc/world_map_intro.html and later also found https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-geo/2006-March/000848.html Note that I'm pretty much an ignorant of the diverse shapefile and other GIS data formats, [ Furthermore, I'd ideally get a solution (or an *.rda file) that does not need the 'rgdal' package since that is very hard for me to get working on our departmental computer, notably the 64-bit ones (problems in installing libgdal / proj.4 / ...). As it *is* working on some versions of R on some ubuntu servers, I could use it if needed. ] Thank you very much in advance!
