The upcoming release of the mapgl #rstats package supports donut charts for circle clustering.
This won't be everyone's favorite technique, but I like how you can visualize the internal composition of clusters.

The map is built on top of my R packages tidycensus, freestiler, and mapgl, with data packaged as PMTiles and hosted on Cloudflare then visualized in MapLibre.
There's a bonus in the map as well - expand the "About this map" panel to find it!

It may. I’m leaning towards Mapbox/MapGL, but I’ll take a closer look at QGIS. I’ll need something that easily integrates with Shiny for R and Python apps. Thanks for the link!

Lots to unpack in this one.

Lots of new features landing in R's mapgl package as it approaches an 0.5.0 release.
Today's drop:
- An interactive color ramp picker for your legends
- Native bivariate choropleth mapping

It looks like I'll soon be able to use the {mapgl} #RStats 📦 and new built-in interactive legends to replace simple #RSpatial Shiny Web apps 🔥🔥⬇️⬇️⬇️
Since I started developing the mapgl R package I've envisioned built-in interactive legends.
They're finally here in the upcoming package release: a filter slider for continuous legends, and click-to-filter for categorical legends.
Blog post coming this week!

The {mapgl} #RStats 📦 lets you use maplibre as well as mapbox, so you don't need a mapbox API key. @kylewalker.bsky.social is also keeping it pretty up to date and adding new features as the underlying Mapbox GL and Maplibre FL JavaScript libraries evolve. I'm really enjoying using it!

The bars at the top of each race were HTML, I'll admit I had Claude write most of that. It's been a long time since I was hand-coding HTML!
I really like mapgl, definitely worth a try.

It feels like a lot more work to get a chatbot to write good R code! I've got a project with the docs for packages I tend to want help with, so I don't have to keep uploading each time. The other issue is that for new pkgs like ellmer & mapgl, info I need is after training cutoff dates.

2) I used the CustomGPT AI Tutor Blueprint chatgpt.com/g/g-1rlItjng... to create a prompt for a mapGL tutor.

Thanks. mapgl makes it much faster and removes some of the hacky components that were needed to get leaflet to avoid redrawing shapes. Appreciate your package!

The code to make the demo is simple, especially if you already use ALARM data:
library(redistio)
nm <- alarmdata::alarm_50state_map('NM')
draw(nm, init_plan = nm$cd_2020, palette = wacolors::wacolors$rainier,
layers = list(County = 'county'))
