deckglgeoarrow: Use 'GeoArrow' to Add 'Deck.gl' Layers to a
'maplibregl'/'mapboxgl' Map
Leverages the high-performance 'GeoArrow' memory layout to render
potentially very large 'Deck.gl' data layers on a 'maplibregl'/'mapboxgl'
map created with R package 'mapgl'. The heavy lifting is done on the
'JavaScript' side in the browser using 'deck.gl-geoarrow'
(<https://github.com/geoarrow/deck.gl-geoarrow/>).
Currently provides functions for adding Scatterplot (points), Path (lines)
and Polygon (polygons) layers. Has support for data classes from R packages
'wk' and 'sf'. In addition, convenience functions for styling data, tooltips
and popups, as well as layer management are provided.
Furthermore, remotely hosted 'GeoParquet' and 'GeoArrow' files can be
visualised directly in the browser, without the need to first read them
into R memory. Only the styling instructions are prepared by the user in R
and are then transferred to and applied in the browser as the data arrives.
