install_github('badbye/baidumap')
Apply an application from lbsyun.baidu.com. Then register you key here.
library(baidumap)
options(baidumap.key = 'XXX fill your key here XXX')
Get location from coordinates data.
lon = matrix(c(117.93780, 24.55730, 117.93291, 24.57745, 117.23530, 24.64210, 117.05890, 24.74860), byrow=T, ncol=2)
### json
location_json = getLocation(lon[1,], output='json')
### xml
location_xml = getLocation(lon[1, ], output='xml')
## formatted
location = getLocation(lon[1, ], formatted = T)
Given a address, return the corresponding coordinates
getCoordinate('北京大学') # json
getCoordinate('北京大学', output='xml') # xml
getCoordinate('北京大学', formatted = T) # character
getCoordinate(c('北京大学', '清华大学'), formatted = T) # matrix
p <- getBaiduMap(c(116.354431, lat=39.942333))
library(ggmap)
ggmap(p)
