An open source book, 'Geocomputation with R', teaching geographic data analysis, visualization, and modeling in R, with all source code and prose hosted on GitHub. It is actively maintained with a second edition published by CRC Press and an up-to-date online version at r.geocompx.org.
Use cases
- learn geospatial data analysis in R
- how to make maps with R and ggplot2
- work with raster and vector spatial data in R
- reproducible geographic data science workflows
- course material for teaching geocomputation
- read and write shapefiles and GeoPackages in R
- spatial statistics and modeling tutorials
When to choose
- you want a free, open, reproducible textbook on geographic data analysis with R
- you need runnable code examples via Binder, Docker, or RStudio Cloud
- you are teaching or self-studying GIS/geocomputation using R packages like sf, terra, and leaflet
When to avoid
- you need geospatial tooling in Python or another language rather than R
- you want a GUI-based GIS application instead of code-driven workflows
- you require a commercial license or formal training support
