r-tmap/tmap: R package for thematic maps

tmap: thematic maps in R

tmap is an R package for drawing thematic maps. The API is based on A Layered Grammar of Graphics and resembles the syntax of ggplot2, a popular R-library for drawing charts.

Installation of tmap is straightforward:

In case it fails, please check the dependencies below.

The development version can be installed from the GitHub repository using one of the following functions:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("r-tmap/tmap")

# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("r-tmap/tmap")

# Or from r-universe
install.packages("tmap", repos = c("https://r-tmap.r-universe.dev", "https://cloud.r-project.org"))

tmap depend on other R packages, which will automatically be installed along. However, two packages sf and s2 have additional system requirements: for Windows users, these are also installed along. For Linux and MacOS users, these additional libraries may need to be installed manually.

Instructions for the libraries GEOS, GDAL and PROJ (required by sf): see the installation instructions of terra which requires the same libraries: MacOS and Linux

Instructions for the libraries Abseil and OpenSS (required by s2): see the installation instructions.

Plot a World map of the happy planet index (HPI) per country. The object World is an example spatial data (sf) object that is contained in tmap:

tm_shape(World) +
    tm_polygons(fill = "HPI")

This map can be enhanced in several ways. For instance:

tm_shape(World, crs = "+proj=robin") +
    tm_polygons(fill = "HPI",
                fill.scale = tm_scale_continuous(values = "matplotlib.rd_yl_bu"),
                fill.legend = tm_legend(title = "Happy Planet Index",
                                        orientation = "landscape", 
                                        frame = FALSE)
                )

Additional Resources for Learning tmap

For more in-depth learning on the tmap package, refer to the following resources:

Book Chapter: Geocomputation with R includes a chapter on Making Maps with R, which covers tmap.
Official Vignettes: A collection of vignettes at r-tmap.github.io covers both basic and advanced topics with examples.
Work-in-Progress Book: Elegant and Informative Maps with tmap is an upcoming book available at tmap.geocompx.org.

These resources provide a solid foundation for working with tmap in R.
