add_heatmap_layer function

Add a heatmap layer to a Mapbox GL map

add_heatmap_layer(
  map,
  id,
  source,
  source_layer = NULL,
  heatmap_color = NULL,
  heatmap_intensity = NULL,
  heatmap_opacity = NULL,
  heatmap_radius = NULL,
  heatmap_weight = NULL,
  visibility = "visible",
  slot = NULL,
  min_zoom = NULL,
  max_zoom = NULL,
  before_id = NULL,
  filter = NULL
)

Arguments

• map: A map object created by the mapboxgl function.
• id: A unique ID for the layer.
• source: The ID of the source, alternatively an sf object (which will be converted to a GeoJSON source) or a named list that specifies type and url for a remote source.
• source_layer: The source layer (for vector sources).
• heatmap_color: The color of the heatmap points.
• heatmap_intensity: The intensity of the heatmap points.
• heatmap_opacity: The opacity of the heatmap layer.
• heatmap_radius: The radius of influence of each individual heatmap point.
• heatmap_weight: The weight of each individual heatmap point.
• visibility: Whether this layer is displayed.
• slot: An optional slot for layer order.
• min_zoom: The minimum zoom level for the layer.
• max_zoom: The maximum zoom level for the layer.
• before_id: The name of the layer that this layer appears "before", allowing you to insert layers below other layers in your basemap (e.g. labels).
• filter: An optional filter expression to subset features in the layer.

Returns

The modified map object with the new heatmap layer added.

Examples

## Not run:

library(mapgl)

mapboxgl(
    style = mapbox_style("dark"),
    center = c(-120, 50),
    zoom = 2
) |>

        source = list(
            type = "geojson",

            values = seq(0, 1, 0.2),
