Hey @R4DScommunity , could anyone help me understand plot export dimensions? I'm trying to make a 1-page grid containing 12 maps, but the legends seem to eat all my exported plot space! Please help! #dataviz #DataVisualization #ggplot2 (code follows)
Some success! Still have lots to learn about graphics, but this has been VERY helpful :) Thank you @taraskaduk @BoaNarlon and @jsavinc for your tips and resources, and @R4DScommunity for helping me scream not into the void!

This is the (abstracted) code for created the patch grid (1). It works great, except that the output grid always looks like some variation of (2). I tried gathering the legends but that seems to fail too.
Visual platforms like google earth seem to be our de-facto standard for “exploring” places we’ve never seen, right? Here’s a cool #neogeoweb challenge to the visual bias in our digital journeys: citiesandmemory.com/. You’re welcome.
Most digital earth platforms I’ve seen for transport are highly local, so when I found flightradar24.com/, I was intrigued. It locates thousands of flights globally in real-time. Interesting to visualise some of the patterns (and biases) in air-traffic globally #neogeoweb
Hello World! I'm taking a class this semester on learning about the Geospatial Web aka the #neogeoweb, so I'm soon to be back at posting random code chunks and map screenshots :) Looking forward to learning and sharing with GEOG384 and the rest of the #DataScience community!
What an honour to get a chance to speak with @thomas_mock this week! I am still overwhelmed by how supportive the entire @R4DScommunity has been as we venture into #rstats with the @PodsProgram
Spoke with the @PodsProgram students yesterday - what a great bunch of Social Science undergrads!! Thanks @markdaku for setting up the meeting!
If you had some advice or career paths for #data4good with #DataScience, what would it be?
#rstats #Python #podsprogram
Yesterday's #TidyTuesday with the @PodsProgram was a fun test of skills, as I tried to examine sighting rates for Hawks and Woodpeckers over time. If anyone has thoughts on which of these (below) formats is better, I'd love some design insights! #rstats
Late but here! Yesterday's #TidyTuesday with the @PodsProgram was a challenge, as I tried moving up in gganimate (1) and exploring the tmap package (2). Wasn't able to animate a cumulative map with tmap though, so any suggestions are welcome! #rstats
Apparently now I know as much about R animation as @seanossek. @markdaku are you proud? #TidyTuesday #rstats
first attempt at a ggplot2 visualization for #TidyTuesday as part of the @PodsProgram ! Send me your thoughts :)
