Compute the Rectangular Statistical Cartogram R package recmap version 1.0.20 CRAN Task View: Spatial (https://CRAN.R-project.org/view=Spatial) Implements the RecMap MP2 construction heuristic <doi:10.1109/INFVIS.2004.57>. This algorithm draws maps according to a given statistical value, e.g., election results, population, or epidemiological data. The basic idea of the RecMap algorithm is that each map region, e.g., different countries, is represented by a rectangle. The area of each rectangle represents the statistical value provided as input to maintain zero cartographic error. Computationally intensive tasks are implemented in C++. The included vignette documents recmap algorithm usage.
