Background info

A project started by Dan MacKinlay, but other are welcome to join us.

Thanks

This site is built upon work, tutorials, inspiration and/or advice from many people we offer them thanks to their inspiration.

However, all mistakes made here and opinions expressed here are the responsibility of the ozpowermap project contributors, not these muses.

How to contribute

The easiest way to get started here is to install RStudio which is the statistics system we used to make this.

Next, fork the source code for this project and download it.

Now, inside RStudio, you should be able to get all the libraries you need installed by running

renv::restore()

Download the large data files by using

source('setup.R')

Your OS might need extra the geography libraries installed:

## Ubuntu et al
sudo apt install libgeos-dev libudunits2-dev libgdal1-dev
## macos
brew install # some stuff I can't remember right now. GDAL?
## windows 
# dunno

Useful resources
