Arguments

plot_rinstat

Whether to create an R-Instat plot (logical).

outfile

Name of the outfile (NULL or character). Should match the fileExtension. If NULL is passed a file is created in the R session temporary directory.

fileExtension

The file extension of the image (character). Has to be one of the following: 'png', 'jpg', 'tif', 'kml', 'pdf'.

visualizeVariables

A data frame containing all meta data for the plotting process (data.frame).

visualizeDataTimestep

The data to be plotted.

nc_path_visualize

The nc file path of which the plot is generated for.

visualizeDataMax

Maximal data for computing breaks.

timestep_2d

The time step to be visualized.

lon_bounds

Array containing two values for longitude min and max (numeric).

lat_bounds

Array containing two values for latitude min and max (numeric).

lon_loc_vec

All longitude entries for points at (lat_loc_vec, lon_loc_vec) to be specified on the map (numeric).

lat_loc_vec

All latitude entries for points at (lat_loc_vec, lon_loc_vec) to be specified on the map (numeric).

name_loc_vec

Names for the points at (lat_loc_vec, lon_loc_vec) to be specified on the map (numeric).

timestep

The current timestep chosen.

num_tick

Number of ticks (numeric).

num_rmin

Color scale range minimum (numeric).

num_rmax

Color scale range maximium (numeric).

num_brk

Number of breaks (numeric).

co.data

Data to be plotted in R-Instat mode (data.frame).

proj

The chosen projection (either 'rect' for rectangular or 'ortho' for orthographic).

xort

Centering the globe at longitude xort (numeric). Only in orthographic mode.

yort

Centering the globe at latitude yort (numeric). Only in orthographic mode.

rort

Rotation of the globe (numeric). Only in orthographic mode.

slider1

Controlling the horizontal plot position as vector of two values min and max (numeric).

slider2

Controlling the vertical plot position as vector of two values min and max (numeric).

imagewidth

Width of the image (numeric).

imageheight

Height of the image (numeric).

location

Whether points specified by (lat_loc_vec, lon_loc_vec, name_loc_vec) should be added to the map (logical).

int

Whether interior country borders should be added (logical).

text1

Title text data set 1 (character).

text2

Text to be passed to graphics::mtext for data set 1 (character).

text3

Text to be added to the legend (character).

textsize

Textsize to be used (cex).

bordercolor

Color used for borders.

linesize

Line width to be used (positive numeric).

na.color

The color to be used for NA values.

PAL

Color palette.

palettes

Color palettes to be used.

reverse

Whether to revert the color palette (logical).

plot_grid

Whether to plot a grid using color grid_col (logical).

grid_col

Color used for the grid.

text1_2

Title text data set 2 (character).

text2_2

Text to be passed to graphics::mtext for data set 2 (character).
