Roger's solution makes sense to me.
The sinusoidal does have the appearance of pinching poleward, a
consequence of allocating equal area by spacing equally in both x and y.
Also the Lambert cylindrical sent in before should have had standard
parallels set to +/- 30, i.e.,

For preview graphics and for large areas such as continents, large
countries, hemispheres, or the whole earth, spherical projections are
often adequate. I can provide some of the ones I have used. For
detailed work at sites and small areas, ellipsoidal projections such as
UTM are usually used, an
The thread below and many others in R-sig-Geo raise questions about
future directions. In reinventing GIS there are a whole list of
capabilities and functions that would be helpful. Some that I have

Yes, apparently with large datasets, the "natural breaks" classification
(and maybe others like quantile) does sample. However, it is possible
to change the sample size by clicking the "Sampling" button in the

Yes, a "joincountogram" is the idea. Thanks for advice on size, I'll
try scaling up.

I have a 1000 x 1000 grid of categorical values (nine of these) and want
to compute and plot a correlogram. Function cell2nb() will take a while
it appears but if that succeeds then can methods of sp.correlogram() be
used on categorical data? What are "style" options in sp.correlogram()?
thanks,
Computing area on the spheroid:
Kimerling AJ. 1984. Area computation from geodetic coordinates on the
spheroid. Surveying and Mapping 44(4):343-351.
Measuring distortion:
Many cartography texts cover this. Analytical formulas for computing
distortion were developed by Tissot in the 19th century.
Has anyone implemented a t-test with the effective sample size
correction proposed by Dale and Fortin, Ecoscience 9(2):162-167, 2002,
using a discussion by Cressie, 1993, page 15?
