add_osm_objects

Adds layers of spatial objects (polygons, lines, or points generated by extract_osm_objects) to a graphics object initialised with osm_basemap.

Usage

add_osm_objects(map, obj, col = "gray40", border = NA, hcol, size, shape)

Arguments

map

A ggplot2 object to which the objects are to be added.

obj

A spatial (sp) data frame of polygons, lines, or points, typically as returned by extract_osm_objects.

col

Colour of lines or points; fill colour of polygons.

border

Border colour of polygons.

hcol

(Multipolygons only) Vector of fill colours for holes

size

Linewidth argument passed to ggplot2 (polygon, path, point) functions: determines width of lines for (polygon, line), and sizes of points. Respective defaults are (0, 0.5, 0.5).

shape

Shape of points or lines (the latter passed as linetype); see shape.

Value

modified version of map to which objects have been added.
