mapSenegal

The goal of mapSenegal is to provides access to administrative boundaries of Senegal at several levels (regions, departements, arrondissements and communes). These boundaries are based on GDAM. The package also gives access to roads, localities, universities and health facilities locations.

Installation

You can install the development version of mapSenegal with:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("rCarto/mapSenegal")

Examples

This is a basic example which shows you how to use the package.

library(mapSenegal)
#> Loading required package: sf
#> Linking to GEOS 3.13.1, GDAL 3.10.3, PROJ 9.6.0; sf_use_s2() is TRUE
library(mapsf)
reg <- sn_regions()
ardt <- sn_arrondissements()
mf_map(ardt)
mf_map(reg, col = NA, lwd = 3, add = TRUE)
mf_scale(pos = "bottomleft")
mf_title("Regions & Arrondissements of Senegal")

The following maps shows the different layers provided by the package.
