Hi, There is a problem with xlim and ylim.
map("worldHires","Antarctica",xlim=c(-180,180),ylim=c(-90,-60),col="gray90",fill=TRUE) You also might have a look at "ggplot2" library(ggplot2) world <- map_data("world") worldmap <- ggplot(world, aes(x=long, y=lat, group=group)) + geom_path() + scale_y_continuous(breaks=(-2:2) * 30) + scale_x_continuous(breaks=(-4:4) * 45) worldmap + coord_map("ortho", orientation=c(-90, 0, 0)) Regards, Pascal On 05/06/13 22:00, ejb wrote:
Hey, I'm new with R and I'm attempting to map and then plot points on a map of Antarctica with help from some code at the following link. Link <http://www.molecularecologist.com/2012/09/making-maps-with-r/> After downloading the packages here is the code I used. I feel like the problem has to do with the coordinates since I get a very small image that appears to be only a small portion of the continent (I want the whole thing). Thanks in advance! library(maps) library(mapdata) map("worldHires","Antarctica",xlim=c(-90,-60),ylim=c(-180,180),col="gray90",fill=TRUE) -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Map-Antarctica-tp4668713.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
