Data Visualisation

R has a very wide range of functions and packages for visualising data.

These pages have a brief introduction to:

• Basic plotting in R
• More advanced plotting with ggplot
• Visualising multivariate data
• Visualising spatial data (incl. mapping)

Visualising multivariate data

R has a very wide range of functions and packages for visualising multivariate data. Here is some help for some of the more commonly used techniques:

• multidimensional scaling
  
• principal componenents analysis
  
• cluster analysis

Visualising spatial data

R has a very wide range of functions and packages for visualising spatial data. This page will link to a series of tutorials for handling spatial data and making maps.

• Making simple maps with ggmap
  
• [Making maps from shapefiles]
