Here I have used open source data to create a map of the municipality Vestvågøy in norway. But the with the code included you should be able to modify it to make a similar map for any municipality or county in norway. note: I have included data to make this map for norland county, for any other county you will have to duplicate the nordlandInfo.csv file I have for data in other counties. data used is the n100 map data from norges kart geonorge.no, and I have also used robhop municipality map link. So thanks for splicing together data from geonorge for ease of use.
For the mountains I used the brush set from Orborot, I have also uploaded onto github the cropped .png files I used from this brush set. Fonts used in this project is the Aniron font.
R code and data here
To do:
- Look into aligning mountains, it looks a bit strange on small islands.
- Add brush sets for cities.
- Overlapping text (text collision)
- Add Forrest and other large terrestial features.
