Below a similar example, using sf and leaflet; plotting the trajectory on a background map.

library(leaflet)
library(sf)
library(dplyr)

# Generate example data
gen_data <- function(id, n) {
  data.frame(
    id = id,
    date = 1:n,
    lat = runif(10, min = -90, max = 90),
    lon = runif(10, min = -180, max = 180)
  )
}

dta <- lapply(1:2, gen_data, n = 10) %>% bind_rows()

# Transform all records of one object/person to a st_linestring, then
# combine into one sf column
lines <- dta %>%
  arrange(id, date) %>%
  split(dta$id) %>%
  lapply(function(d) st_linestring(cbind(d$lon, d$lat))) %>%
  unname() %>%   # Without the unname it doesn't work for some reason
  st_sfc()

# Plot using leaflet
leaflet() %>%
  addTiles() %>%
  addPolylines(data = lines)

Hello,

The following uses ggplot2.

First, make up a dataset, since you have not posted one.



lat0 <- 38.736946
lon0 <- -9.142685
n <- 10

set.seed(1)
Date <- seq(Sys.Date() - n + 1, Sys.Date(), by = "days")
Lat <- lat0 + cumsum(c(0, runif(n - 1)))
Lon <- lon0 + cumsum(c(0, runif(n - 1)))
Placename <- rep(c("A", "B"), n/2)

path <- data.frame(Date, Placename, Lat, Lon)
path <- path[order(path$Date), ]


Now, two graphs, one with just one line of all the lon/lat and the other with a line for each Placename.

library(ggplot2)

ggplot(path, aes(x = Lon, y = Lat)) +
   geom_point() +
   geom_line()


ggplot(path, aes(x = Lon, y = Lat, colour = Placename)) +
   geom_point(aes(fill = Placename)) +
   geom_line()


Hope this helps,

Rui Barradas

Dear All,
I have a dataframe with four cols: Date, Placename, geogr. latitude, geogr. longitude. How can I plot the path as a line, ordered by the date, with the longitude as the x-axis and the latitude as the y-axis?
Thank you in advance!
Yours, Ferri
