Layered static maps #1

Closed tabrasel closed 4 years ago

tabrasel commented 4 years ago

Ability to create ggplot static images by layering in any order:

Maybe something like this? :

createMap(stamenMap) %>%
  layer_raster(elevationRaster) %>%
  layer_polys(statePolys) %>%
  layer_vectorfield(windRaster) %>%
  layer_points(monitorPoints)

Just started looking at your work-in-progress and you are absolutely on track with what I think we should provide for this first stage of the WRFmet package. We can describe the initial functionality as:

  1. Ability to ingest single-tilmestep local WRF output as 'raster' objects
  2. Ability to create simple plots of WRF fields.
  3. Ability to create ggplot static images by layering in any order: raster (from WRF or BlueSky or elsewhere); vector field (from U, V rasterBrick); spatial polygons; spatial points
  4. Example "articles" demonstrating how to do this with WRF output, BlueSky runs; MazamaSpatialUtils datasets; PWFSLSmoke monitor data
