Get Started

Starting with rasterpic is very easy! You just need a image (png, jpeg/jpg or tif/tiff) and a spatial object (from the sf or the terra) package to start using it.

Basic usage

We use here as an example the shape of Austria:

library(sf)
library(terra)
library(rasterpic)

# Plot
library(tidyterra)
library(ggplot2)

# Shape and image
x <- read_sf(system.file("gpkg/austria.gpkg", package = "rasterpic"))
img <- system.file("img/vertical.png", package = "rasterpic")

# Create!

default <- rasterpic_img(x, img)

autoplot(default) +
  geom_sf(data = x)

Options

The function provides several options for expanding, alignment and cropping.

Expand

With this option the image is zoomed out of the spatial object:

expand <- rasterpic_img(x, img, expand = 1)


autoplot(expand) +
  geom_sf(data = x)
