Interactive mapview plot with USGS Hydrography overlay

Source: R/mapview_hydro.R
mapview_hydro.Rd

Basemap options within common R spatial packages are not entirely satisfactory when mapping along estuarine coastlines. USGS provides a Hydrography layer that is very useful, but is not built into said packages. This function adds the USGS Hydrography layer to a mapview object. This function can be used just like mapview::mapview().

Usage

mapview_hydro(x, map.types = "default", layer.name = "data", ...)

Arguments

x

Spatial object (e.g., sf, SpatVector).

map.types

Character vector of basemaps. Defaults to c("Esri.WorldGrayCanvas", "Esri.WorldTopoMap", "Esri.OceanBasemap", "OpenStreetMap") via an internal function.

layer.name

Character name for data layer. Defaults to "data".

...

Additional arguments passed to mapview::mapview().

Value

A mapview object containing the modified leaflet map.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
library(mapview)
# make a map as you would otherwise with mapview
# styling is adjusted automatically
mapview_hydro(MDEQ_beach_stations,
              color = "purple",
              lwd = 2,
              col.regions = "orange",
              legend = NULL)
# give it a layer name
mapview_hydro(MDEQ_beach_stations,
              layer.name = "MDEQ Beach Stations",
              color = "purple",
              lwd = 2,
              col.regions = "orange")
# provide different basemaps
mapview_hydro(MDEQ_beach_stations,
              color = "purple",
              col.regions = "orange",
              legend = NULL,
              map.types = c("Esri.WorldTopoMap",
                            "OpenStreetMap"))
} # }
