Map transition for animation

This function transforms the data in the long form so that the transition from the first map to the second map can be seen in the animation. This function is like tidyr::pivot_longer but works for sf objects (error is given tidyr::pivot_longer when combining sf objects).

Usage

transition_map_data(x, map_from, map_to, name = "geometry")

Arguments

x

An sf map object with two maps.

map_from, map_to

Unquoted name of the column with the map to transition from/to.

name

The name of the column with the map object.
