The U.S. Census Bureau maintains many databases of geographic information free for use by anyone. The data is referenced as “Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing” — i.e. “TIGER” — and they describe land attributes such as roads, buildings, rivers, and lakes, along with census tracts. I thought it’d be fun to map all the roads in Maine with “green” in the name.

I started maintaining a package (asam) that lets folks work with “anti-shipping activity messages” maintained by the U.S. National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency when I began crafting my annual R-themed “Talk Like a Pirate Day” posts. Each record in the ASAM database contains high level information on each incident, including longitude/latitude along with ship and offender metadata and a brief blurb on the incident. Most of these incidents are pirates and they’ve kept a log since 1978 of all these incidents. I thought a hex grid heatmap of all ASAM incidents since the database inception would be a fun way to meet today’s challenge.

Many organizations maintain up-to-date shapefiles of the latest U.S. Congressional voting districes. The GeoJSON used here comes from the Civil Services Accountability in Action GitHub. These virtual district borders are human-made creations that are supposed to help the democratic process be more fair. Alas, both major parties in the U.S. hack these shapes to suit themselves whenever power flips in Washington. Since most folks outside of ultra-political circles almost never see these district shapes, I thought both a complete view and separate view of the 116th Congress borders would be interesting to show.

The life lines of Berlin. A fast way to find major streets within a city, without searching for any data on traffic amounts, street types or street width: Take random start and end points within the city and run a routing to find routes connecting the start and end points. Then aggregate the single street segments on how often they were used. You then get an image of the major city axes. Big thanks to the stplanr package, which makes this easily done within a few lines of code!

Noise level in Berlin. OpenGIS Web Services (OWS) define geospatial standards to provide geo data, like WFS (Web Feature Service) for vector data and WMS (Web Map Service) for raster data. Yet, these standards are not widely known with developers or data analysts who are used to working with ESRI-shape files, geojsons, etc. Some spatial data infrastructure providers, as the Geodatenportal Berlin (FIS-Broker) only offer these services and no further file download. There are some resources on how to use those services in R, e.g. here some general info and here more specific for the Berlin FIS-Broker. Though, all example code was on retrieving vector data of WFS services. For todays challenge “raster” I wanted to try out, how easy it is to get raster data (WMS) straight into R. It’s not entirely straight forward, as you need to find some parameters (e.g. “layers”) through the getCapabilities query first. Then you retrieve a PNG where you need to set a proper georeference again, with a bounding box and CRS. Therefore, I still find the easiest way for a one time download to use QGIS (I wrote a blog post on how to do that at the Technologiestiftung Berlin), as QGIS does all this setting the correct parameters already for you.

Rotpunkt. Today is another one on climbing - it’s less about the mapping tools. In sport climbing, redpointing is free-climbing a route, while lead climbing, after having practiced the route beforehand. The English term “redpoint” is a loan translation of the German Rotpunkt coined by Kurt Albert in the mid-1970s at Frankenjura. He would paint a red X on a fixed pin so that he could avoid using it for a foot- or handhold. Once he was able to free-climb the entire route, he would put a red dot at the base of the route. In many ways, this was the origin of the free climbing movement that led to the development of sport climbing ten years later. This map shows all notable ascents according to Wikipedia.

I pondered a bit on what to do for today’s challenge since there are many types of zones: environmental… temperate… time… After checking out some of my older blog posts, I went back over to my {asam} package (we used this in a previous challenge) which has a shapefile I made from the National Imagery and Mapping Agency (NIMA)/National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) Catalog of Hydrographic Products. There are 9 ASAM global regions and 52 ASAM global subregions. These are referenced in REGION and SUBREGION fields in the returned {sf} object. I’m classifying these as zones for the sake of this challenge. What is an NIMA/ASAM region/subregion? Well, for their use, the world is divided into nine regions: each corresponding to the geographic limits of one of the nine regions in the NIMA catalog. Each region is further divided into numbered subregions. The first digit of all five-digit chart numbers indicates the geographic region while the first two digits of all five-digit chart numbers refer to the geographic subregion. That may be super dry commentary, but at least they’ve got a data strategy.
