Hi everyone,
What I try to accomplish: a world map with country borders, and adjustable facecolor per country and ideally also the names of the nations.
I'm working on a project at which I'd like to visualize each country's political risk. A country colored in red stands for a high political risk, yellow a medium risk and green a low risk. It should look like this map from Maplecroft. I could just use the Maplecroft picture, but I'd like all pictures of my report to be in the same style.
My trials and errors:
- I've tried the worldmap function, but couldn't find out how to get the nation borders and additionally how to adjust the colors of the nations.
- The plot_map and worlddatamap function as defined here and here . However I could not figure out how to color the individual countries/nations.
Would be great to hear from you.
Jelle
