Plot the values of a SpatRaster or SpatVector to make a map.
See points
, lines
or polys
to add a SpatVector to an existing map (or use argument add=TRUE
.
There is a separate help file for plotting a SpatGraticule
or SpatExtent
.

SpatRaster or SpatVector
missing or positive integer or name indicating the layer(s) to be plotted
character. Colors. The default is rev(grDevices::terrain.colors(50))
. If x
is a SpatRaster
, it can also be a data.frame
with two columns (value, color) to get a "classes" type legend or with three columns (from, to, color) to get an "interval" type legend
character. Type of map/legend. One of "continuous", "classes", or "interval". If not specified, the type is chosen based on the data
numeric vector of length 4 to set the margins of the plot (to make space for the legend). The default is (3.1, 3.1, 2.1, 7.1) for a single plot with a legend and (3.1, 3.1, 2.1, 2.1) otherwise. The default for a RGB raster is 0. Use mar=NA
to not set the margins
logical or character. If not FALSE
a legend is drawn. The character value can be used to indicate where the legend is to be drawn. For example "topright" or "bottomleft". Use plg
for more refined placement. Not supported for continuous legends (the default for raster data)
logical. Draw axes?
logical. If TRUE
the plotting area is made slightly larger than the extent of x
background color. Default is no color (white)
logical. Should a box be drawn around the map?
logical. Should the axes be clipped to the extent of x
?
list with parameters for drawing the legend. See the arguments for legend
. Parameter digits
can be used to set the number of digits to print (after the decimal point for a continuous legend). Parameter size
can be used to change the height and/or width of a continuous legend. The defaults are c(1,1)
, negative values for size flip the order of the legend
list with parameters for drawing axes. See the arguments for axis
. Arguments side
, tick
and lab
can be used to indicate for which of the four axes to draw a line (side), tick-mark, and/or the tick-mark labels. The default is c(1:4)
for side and 1:2
for the other two. If side
is changed the other two default to that value. Logical argument retro
can be used to use a sexagesimal notation for the labels (degrees/minutes/hemisphere) instead of the standard decimal notation
positive integer. Maximum number of cells to use for the plot
logical. If TRUE
the cell values are smoothed (only if a continuous legend is used)
numeric. minimum and maximum values to be used for the continuous legend
character. labels for the legend when type="classes"
logical. If TRUE
, the legend shows all levels of a categorical raster, even if they are not present in the data
numeric. Either a single number to indicate the number of breaks desired, or the actual breaks. When providing this argument, the default legend becomes "interval"
character or function. Either "eqint" for equal interval breaks, "cases" for equal quantile breaks. If a function is supplied it should take a single argument (a vector of values) and create groups
function to be called after plotting each SpatRaster layer to add something to each map (such as text, legend, lines). For example, with SpatVector v
, you could do fun=function() lines(v)
. The function may have one argument, representing the layer that is plotted (1 to the number of layers)
character. color for the NA values
Either a single numeric between 0 and 1 to set the transparency for all colors (0 is transparent, 1 is opaque) or a SpatRaster with values between 0 and 1 to set the transparency by cell. To set the transparency for a given color, set it to the colors directly
logical. If TRUE
legends with categorical values are sorted. If x
is a SpatVector
you can also supply a vector of the unique values, in the order in which you want them to appear in the legend
logical. If TRUE
, legends are sorted in decreasing order
logical. If TRUE
grid lines are drawn. Their properties such as type and color can be set with the pax
argument
positive integer. Optional. The number of columns to divide the plotting device in (when plotting multiple layers)
positive integer. Optional. The number of rows to divide the plotting device in (when plotting multiple layers)
character. Main plot titles (one for each layer to be plotted). You can use arguments cex.main
, font.main
, col.main
to change the appearance; and loc.main
to change the location of the main title (either two coordinates, or a character value such as "topleft")
positive integer. Maximum number of layers to plot (for a multi-layer object)
logical. If TRUE
add the object to the current plot
SpatExtent. Can be use instead of xlim and ylim to set the extent of the plot
logical. If TRUE
add the margins (see argument mar
) are reset to what they were before calling plot; doing so may affect the display of additional objects that are added to the map (e.g. with lines
Either a vector with values to be used for plotting or a two-column data.frame, where the first column matches a variable in x
and the second column has the values to be plotted
