The code in this library section is not supported by StatSci.

This library section contains software for displaying maps in S-PLUS.
The software was developed at AT&T Bell Labs and is described in the
AT&T Statistics Research Report "Maps in S" by Richard A. Becker
and Allan R. Wilks.

There are online help files available for the functions:

     map
     mapproject

and datasets:

     State.vbm
     state.vbm.center
     Usa
     State
     County

Currently the only database available for mapping is the United States
down to the county level.  There is world database map available via
anonymous ftp.  See the help file "World" for information on how to
obtain this database.

To try this out run:

> library(maps)
> motif()  # or any other graphics device
> map()  # draws the U.S. map with state boundaries
