bivariatechoropleths

The goal of bivariatechoropleths is to give easy and “tidy” tools for bivariate mapping, including static images for publication, dynamic maps for interactive documents, and a range of tools for creating and exploring bivariate colour palettes.

Please note this is in development. Any bug reports or suggestions are welcome.

Installation

You can install the developer version of bivariatechoropleths with the following command:

devtools::install_github("chris31415926535/bivariatechoropleths")

Example

Here’s an example using a built-in dataset about Renfrew County, Ontario. It won’t render here, but if you run it locally it will give you an interactive Leaflet map.

library(bivariatechoropleths)
library(leaflet)

leaflet::leaflet() %>%
   leaflet::addTiles() %>%
   bivariatechoropleths::addBivariateChoropleth(
     map_data = bivariatechoropleths::renfrew_county,
     var1_name = pop_2016,
     var2_name = median_household_income_2015,
     ntiles= 3,
     var1_label = "Population, 2016",
     var2_label = "Median Household\nIncome, 2015",
     region_name = "CSDNAME",
     weight = 1,
     fillOpacity = 0.7,
     color = "grey",
     highlightOptions = leaflet::highlightOptions(color = "orange",
                                                  weight = 2,
                                                  opacity = 1))
