facet_geo {geofacet}R Documentation

Arrange a sequence of geographical panels into a grid that preserves some geographical orientation

Description

Arrange a sequence of geographical panels into a grid that preserves some geographical orientation

Usage

facet_geo(facets, ..., grid = "us_state_grid1", label = NULL, move_axes = TRUE)

Arguments

facets

passed to facet_wrap

grid

character vector of the grid layout to use (currently only "us_state_grid1" and "us_state_grid2" are available)

label

an optional string denoting the name of a column in grid to use for facet labels. If NULL, the variable that best matches that in the data specified with facets will be used for the facet labels.

move_axes

should axis labels and ticks be moved to the closest panel along the margins?

...

additional parameters passed to facet_wrap
