Plot a Spatial*DataFrame or STFDF object

Takes an object of class Spatial*DataFrame or STFDF, and plots requested data columns using ggplot2

Usage

plot_spatial_or_ST(
  newdata,
  column_names,
  map_layer = NULL,
  subset_time = NULL,
  palette = "Spectral",
  plot_over_world = FALSE,
  labels_from_coordnames = TRUE,
  ...
)

# S4 method for class 'STFDF'
plot_spatial_or_ST(
  newdata,
  column_names,
  map_layer = NULL,
  subset_time = NULL,
  palette = "Spectral",
  plot_over_world = FALSE,
  labels_from_coordnames = TRUE,
  ...
)

# S4 method for class 'SpatialPointsDataFrame'
plot_spatial_or_ST(
  newdata,
  column_names,
  map_layer = NULL,
  subset_time = NULL,
  palette = "Spectral",
  plot_over_world = FALSE,
  labels_from_coordnames = TRUE,
  ...
)

# S4 method for class 'SpatialPixelsDataFrame'
plot_spatial_or_ST(
  newdata,
  column_names,
  map_layer = NULL,
  subset_time = NULL,
  palette = "Spectral",
  plot_over_world = FALSE,
  labels_from_coordnames = TRUE,
  ...
)

# S4 method for class 'SpatialPolygonsDataFrame'
plot_spatial_or_ST(
  newdata,
  column_names,
  map_layer = NULL,
  subset_time = NULL,
  palette = "Spectral",
  plot_over_world = FALSE,
  labels_from_coordnames = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

newdata

an object of class Spatial*DataFrame or STFDF

column_names

a vector of strings indicating the columns of the data to plot

map_layer

(optional) a ggplot layer or object to add below the plotted layer, often a map

subset_time

(optional) a vector of times to be included; applicable only for STFDF objects

palette

the palette supplied to the argument palette of scale_*_distiller(). Alternatively, if palette = "nasa", a vibrant colour palette is created using scale_*_gradientn()

plot_over_world

logical; if TRUE, coord_map("mollweide") and draw_world are used to plot over the world

labels_from_coordnames

logical; if TRUE, the coordinate names of newdata (i.e., coordnames(newdata)) are used as the horizontal- and vertical-axis labels. Otherwise, generic names, s_1 and s_2, are used

...

optional arguments passed on to whatever geom is appropriate for the Spatial*DataFrame or STFDF object (geom_point, geom_tile, geom_raster, or geom_polygon)

Value

A list of ggplot objects corresponding to the provided column_names. This list can then be supplied to, for example, ggpubr::ggarrange().
