Hi DD,
if you have a .shp file (which in principal should exist of the kind
of map your describing) you can load into R using this packages:
http://r-spatial.sourceforge.net/
In addition, there is also the R-Geo list which is much more suited
for this kind of questions:
r-sig-...@stat.math.ethz.ch
And there is always the book when it comes to R and spatial modeling
(Applied Spatial Data Analysis With R):
http://www.asdar-book.org/
Best of luck,
Stefan

I started learning R a year ago, but had to drop it for work reasons. Is
there someone on the list who can help guide me through the process or
refer me to /very, very/ detailed instructions and tutorials?
Thanks,
DD
