Hi Michael: I am not totally certain what you are trying to do, but Hadley Wickham and a student have been working on a package that allows a variety of plots to be added to maps. Examples can be found in this paper in Environmetrics : > Glyph-maps for visually exploring temporal patterns in climate data > and models(pages 382-393) Hadley Wickham, Heike Hofmann, Charlotte > Wickham and Dianne Cook Article first published online: 5 JUL 2012 | > DOI: 10.1002/env.2152 > I believe an earlier version is available at Wickham's web page. When I asked him about the packages he used to make the plots, he wrote: > All code and data for that article is available at > https://github.com/ggobi/paper-climate. > > My student Garrett has also been working on a generalisation of the > glyph map ideas. His R package is at > https://github.com/garrettgman/ggplyr and I've attached the > corresponding paper (in submission to JCGS). I mention it mainly > because the code might be in a form that's easier to reuse for your > purposes.
