spoccutils

Helper for spocc - a client for getting species occurrence data from many sources.

This package has utilities for:

• Making maps, with:
  • base R
  • ggplot2
  • Leaflet
  • GitHub Gists
  • ...

We split this package off from spocc to make spocc lighter weight so that users that just want data don't have to install a bunch of other dependencies for mapping, etc.

ggplot2 family maps

ggmaps

ecoengine_data <- occ(query = 'Lynx rufus californicus', from = 'ecoengine', limit = 100)
map_ggmaps(ecoengine_data)

ggplot
