Maps of the world and the continents

A collection of functions for directional data (including massive data, with millions of observations) analysis.
Hypothesis testing, discriminant and regression analysis, MLE of distributions and more are included.
The standard textbook for such data is the "Directional Statistics" by Mardia, K. V. and Jupp, P. E. (2000).
