Adding a Piece of Flair

Earlier in this chapter, we used addSearchOSM() to find the middle of the US. To search for markers, rather than locations, we can use the addSearchFeatures() function. addSearchFeatures() will add a search box that you can use to find markers in the group(s) passed to the targetGroups argument. For example, to search our map for public colleges we could use the following code.

m4  %>% 
  addSearchFeatures(
    targetGroups = 'Public',
    options = searchFeaturesOptions(zoom = 10))

The m4 map and the leaflet.extras package have been loaded for you.

Chapter 1 will introduce students to the htmlwidgets package and the leaflet package. Following this introduction, students will build their first interactive web map using leaflet. Through the process of creating this first map students will be introduced to many of the core features of the leaflet package, including adding different map tiles, setting the center point and zoom level, plotting single points based on latitude and longitude coordinates, and storing leaflet maps as objects. Chapter 1 will conclude with students geocoding DataCamp’s headquarters, and creating a leaflet map that plots the headquarters and displays a popup describing the location.

In Chapter 4 students will learn to map polygons, which can be used to define geographic regions (e.g., zip codes, states, countries, etc.). Chapter 4 will start by plotting the zip codes in North Carolina that fall in the top quartile of mean family incomes. Students will learn to customize the polygons with color palettes and labels. Chapter 4 will conclude with adding a new layer to the map of every college in America that displays every zip code with a mean income of $200,000 or more during the 2015 tax year. Through the process of mapping zip codes students will learn about spatial data generally, geoJSON data, the @ symbol, and the addPolygons() function. Furthermore, students will have an opportunity to practice applying many of the options that they learned about in the previous chapters, such as popups and labels, as well as new ways to customize their maps, such as the highlight option in addPolygons().
