Abstract

geoplot draws maps from shape files and other datasets. The procedure is to first create one or several frames containing the source data using geoframe and then apply geoplot to plot the data from these frames. Multiple layers of elements such as regions, borders, lakes, roads, labels, and symbols can be freely combined. The look of the elements (e.g. their color) can be varied depending on the values of variables.
