This repository provides materials for a session that is part of the I2DS Tools for Data Science workshop run at the Hertie School, Berlin in November 2022. The student-run workshop is part of the course Introduction to Data Science taught by Simon Munzert at the Hertie School, Berlin, in Fall 2022.
This session will introduce you to the vibrant world of interactive maps with R and leaflet. Interactive maps are an interesting way to visualize datasets in a base map and to discover geographical data patterns.
The goals of this session are to (1) equip you with conceptual knowledge about the leaflet package and map-making basics, (2) show you key functions to make an interactive map, and (3) provide you with practice material as well as some further readings and data sources.
