nswgeo

nswgeo status badge R-CMD-check CRAN status

A collection of geospatial datasets and map plotting helpers for working with New South Wales maps. The maps are registered with {cartographer} and so are compatible with {ggautomap}.

Installation

You can install nswgeo like so:

# CRAN release
install.packages('nswgeo')

# development version
install.packages('nswgeo', repos = c('https://cidm-ph.r-universe.dev', 'https://cloud.r-project.org'))

Examples

The data can be used directly with ggplot:

library(nswgeo)
library(ggplot2)

ggplot(nswgeo::lhd) + geom_sf(aes(fill = lhd_name), show.legend = FALSE)

Alternatively, the data can be accessed through {cartographer}:

library(cartographer)
head(covid_cases_nsw)
#> # A tibble: 6 × 5
#>   postcode lga       lhd                 year type 
#>   <chr>    <chr>     <chr>              <int> <chr>
#> 1 2427     Mid-Coast Hunter New England  2022 B    
#> 2 2761     Blacktown Western Sydney      2021 A    
#> 3 2426     Mid-Coast Hunter New England  2022 B    
#> 4 2148     Blacktown Western Sydney      2022 B    
#> 5 2768     Blacktown Western Sydney      2021 A    
#> 6 2766     Blacktown Western Sydney      2021 B
