Creating the Map In this article, I will try to explain how to make Indonesia Map in R. I will assume that you are already familiar with the basic codes in R. First, we need the required libraries : require (maps) #loading maps package require (mapdata) #loading mapdata package library(ggplot2) #ggplot2 package library(readxl) #package for read .xlsx file library(ggthemes) #package for ggplot2 theme library(ggrepel) #extendig the plotting package ggplot2 for maps Then, we prepare the data that contains the information of provinces name, latitude, and longitude of every province in Indonesia, e.g. : You can download the data in here:  Data Now open the file and create the polygon: setwd( "your file's path" ) #set your own directory mydata<- read _xlsx( "dummy.xlsx" ) #assign the data to "mydata" View(mydata) #view the data, notice the column of "latitude","longitude", "woe_label" glo...
