map.landkreis {spam} | R Documentation

## Administrative districts of Germany

### Description

Displaying data over the administrative districts of Germany

### Usage

    map.landkreis(data, col=NULL, zlim=range(data), add=FALSE,
                  legendpos=c( 0.88,0.9,0.05,0.4))

### Arguments

`data` | vector of length 544
`col` | color scheme to be used. By default uses `tim.colors` if available or a generic gray scale.
`zlim` | the minimum and maximum values for which colors should be plotted, defaulting to the range of `data`.
`add` | logical, if true adds to current plot.
`legendpos` | if package fields is loaded, puts a legend at that position.

### Details

The function `germany.plot` super-seeds `map.landkreis` (it is several factors faster).

The perfect position of the legend is an art per se and depends on various `par` parameters. See also the source code of the function `image.plot` of fields.
