This tutorial introduces a number of skills related to mapping data in R
: data cleaning, table joins, and map production. R
is not a replacement for a GIS like ArcGIS or QGIS. However, its mapping tools are useful for previewing data and creating quick maps, particularly of quantitative data. R
is also particularly useful for its spatial statistics tools.
