Compress the size of your images with R, resmush and reSmush.it

Another way to represent demographics on a map.

A couple of weeks ago I was doing my daily check on StackOverflow when I found a question by Benjamin Smith that blew my mind: Creating Star Map Visualizations Based on Location and Date !!

Add marginal plots to a SpatRaster map on ggplot2

Using shadow effects on relief mappings is a very common technique, that allows to produce informative yet beautiful maps.

tidyterra provides tidyverse methods for terra objects and geom functions for plotting with ggplot2.

Create ridgelines (AKA joyplots) of territories using elevation data with R, sf, terra and ggridges.

A common challenge when creating maps is how to include an inset map on your visualization. An inset map is a smaller map usually included on a corner that may provide additional context to the overall map, or may include map units than won't be usually represented properly.

On 27 Jan. 2022 my package rasterpic was accepted on CRAN (Hooray!!). This package allows to geotag images, using an spatial object (from sf or terra) as a geographic reference.
