propSymbolsChoroLayer: Proportional and Choropleth Symbols Layer

Description

Plot a proportional symbols layer with colors based on a quantitative data discretization.

Usage

propSymbolsChoroLayer(x, spdf, df, spdfid = NULL, dfid = NULL, var,
  inches = 0.3, fixmax = NULL, symbols = "circle",
  border = "grey20", lwd = 1, var2, breaks = NULL,
  method = "quantile", nclass = NULL, col = NULL, colNA = "white",
  legend.title.cex = 0.8, legend.values.cex = 0.6,
  legend.var.pos = "right", legend.var.title.txt = var,
  legend.var.values.rnd = 0, legend.var.style = "c",
  legend.var.frame = FALSE, legend.var2.pos = "topright",
  legend.var2.title.txt = var2, legend.var2.values.rnd = 2,
  legend.var2.nodata = "no data", legend.var2.frame = FALSE,
  add = TRUE)

Arguments

x

an sf object, a simple feature collection. If x is used then spdf, df, spdfid and dfid are not.

spdf

SpatialPointsDataFrame or SpatialPolygonsDataFrame; if spdf is a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame symbols are plotted on centroids.

df

a data frame that contains the values to plot. If df is missing spdf@data is used instead.

spdfid

identifier field in spdf, default to the first column of the spdf data frame. (optional)

dfid

identifier field in df, default to the first column of df. (optional)

var

name of the numeric field in df to plot the symbols sizes.

inches

size of the biggest symbol (radius for circles, width for squares, height for bars) in inches.

fixmax

value of the biggest symbol (see propSymbolsLayer Details).

symbols

type of symbols, one of "circle", "square" or "bar".

border

color of symbols borders.

lwd

width of symbols borders.

var2

name of the numeric field in df to plot the colors.

breaks

break points in sorted order to indicate the intervals for assigning the colors. Note that if there are nlevel colors (classes) there should be (nlevel+1) breakpoints (see choroLayer Details).

method

a discretization method; one of "sd", "equal", "quantile", "fisher-jenks", "q6" or "geom" (see choroLayer Details).

nclass

a targeted number of classes. If null, the number of class is automatically defined (see choroLayer Details).

col

a vector of colors. Note that if breaks is specified there must be one less colors specified than the number of break.

colNA

no data color.

legend.title.cex

size of the legend title.

legend.values.cex

size of the values in the legend.

legend.var.pos

position of the legend, one of "topleft", "top", "topright", "right", "bottomright", "bottom", "bottomleft", "left" or a vector of two coordinates in map units (c(x, y)). If legend.var.pos is "n" then the legend is not plotted.

legend.var.title.txt

title of the legend (proportional symbols).

legend.var.values.rnd

number of decimal places of the values in the legend.

legend.var.style

either "c" or "e". The legend has two display styles.

legend.var.frame

whether to add a frame to the legend (TRUE) or not (FALSE).

legend.var2.pos

position of the legend, one of "topleft", "top", "topright", "right", "bottomright", "bottom", "bottomleft", "left" or a vector of two coordinates in map units (c(x, y)). If legend.var2.pos is "n" then the legend is not plotted.

legend.var2.title.txt

title of the legend (colors).

legend.var2.values.rnd

number of decimal places of the values in the legend.

legend.var2.nodata

text for "no data" values

legend.var2.frame

whether to add a frame to the legend (TRUE) or not (FALSE).

add

whether to add the layer to an existing plot (TRUE) or not (FALSE).
