Simple Features for R: Standardized Support for Spatial Vector Data

Edzer Pebesma
- 01 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: The sf package implements simple features in R, and has roughly the same capacity for spatial vector data as packages sp, rgeos and rgdal, and its place in the R package ecosystem, and the potential to connect R to other computer systems are described.

ggmap: Spatial Visualization with ggplot2

David Kahle, +1 more
- 01 Jan 2013 - 
TL;DR: This article details some new methods for the visualization of spatial data in R using the layered grammar of graphics implementation of ggplot2 in conjunction with the contextual information of static maps from Google Maps, OpenStreetMap, Stamen Maps or CloudMade Maps and presents an overview of a few utility functions.

The statistical analysis of crash-frequency data: A review and assessment of methodological alternatives

TL;DR: In the absence of detailed driving data that would help improve the identification of cause and effect relationships with individual vehicle crashes, most researchers have addressed this problem by framing it in terms of understanding the factors that affect the frequency of crashes -the number of crashes occurring in some geographical space (usually a roadway segment or intersection) over some specified time period as mentioned in this paper.

SoilGrids1km--global soil information based on automated mapping.

TL;DR: SoilGrids1km provides an initial set of examples of soil spatial data for input into global models at a resolution and consistency not previously available and results of regression modeling indicate that the most useful covariates for modeling soils at the global scale are climatic and biomass indices, lithology, and taxonomic mapping units derived from conventional soil survey.
