This semester, Wednesday is #rayshader day so here's a population density map of the world. This is at 30 arc-second (~ 1km) resolution; not sure if raymachine can handle 400m. Will find out as soon as the data loads...😋#rayshader adventures, an #rstats tale pic.twitter.com/X6Yed2V2IP

You can step up your data visualization game with {ggiraph} & {patchwork}.

Two premier tools for creating interactive, connected plots with click events and tool-tips. (And they're super easy to use too.)
