get_map() is a smart wrapper that queries the Google Maps,
OpenStreetMap, Stamen Maps or Naver Map servers for a map.

)a ggmap object (a classed raster object with a bounding box attribute)
an address, longitude/latitude pair (in that order), or left/bottom/right/top bounding box
map zoom, an integer from 3 (continent) to 21 (building), default value 10 (city). openstreetmaps limits a zoom of 18, and the limit on stamen maps depends on the maptype. "auto" automatically determines the zoom for bounding box specifications, and is defaulted to 10 with center/zoom specifications. maps of the whole world currently not supported.
scale argument of get_googlemap() or get_openstreetmap()
character string providing map theme. options available are "terrain", "terrain-background", "satellite", "roadmap", and "hybrid" (google maps), "terrain", "watercolor", and "toner" (stamen maps)
Google Maps ("google"), OpenStreetMap ("osm"), Stamen Maps ("stamen")

destination file for download (file extension added according
to format). Default NULL means a random tempfile().
