Hi Ivan, thank you so much for your kind words! I’m glad you enjoyed the tutorial. Just to clarify, the tutorial is intended as a demo, and I often change color palettes for different projects. The map you mentioned with the yellow and brown population peaks on LinkedIn might not be included in this specific tutorial. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions while going through the tutorial. Thanks again for your support!

Points are not supposed to be in the place of major cities because they are randomly placed to display population density.

Thank you so much for your kind words, James! I'm thrilled to hear that you find my video helpful and inspiring for your work with GIS and map-making in R. It's always great to know that my content is assisting others in overcoming installation and setup challenges. If you ever have any questions or need further assistance while working on your maps, feel free to reach out.

Thanks for the tip! Can you share the error message?

I'm glad to hear the tutorials are helpful! If you find the pace a bit quick, TH-cam allows you to adjust the playback speed. You can slow it down to catch all the details, or even pause whenever you need more time.

@@milos-makes-maps you're absolutely right! I should be doing that. I want to learn R by watching your tutorial videos. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge free of charge.

@@mamadeem.kamara4279 Thanks for following my tutorial and keep up the good work!

Hey, you can use gadm function from geodata package as I show in, for example, this tutorial: th-cam.com/video/NY34O3H9qQQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=geEUp-Lc6e3HcQcJ

@@milos-makes-maps What is the source of the error "wkt" "I installed the sp package and it shows up in it but not in the libraries when writing!

Hello, I re-run the code on my machine and it installs rayshader version 0.35.7 Are you also running this code? remotes::install_version( "rayshader", version = "0.35.7", repos = "cran.us.r-project.org" )

My pleasure! You could add point coordinates using the sf package like I did in this intro tutorial: th-cam.com/video/iDURRHzM2aA/w-d-xo.html. You might face issues with the rendering stage because of two layers. Let me know how it goes

@@milos-makes-maps Thank you so much, I'll try it out now.

The error message suggests that there is an issue with a Unicode escape sequence in your R script or configuration file. This often occurs when a file path is not properly formatted in R. In R, backslashes in file paths need to be escaped with another backslash. Alternatively, you can use forward slashes, which R interprets correctly on all platforms. Here's how you can correct the file path: - Incorrect: "C:\User\Documents\file" - Correct: "C:\\User\\Documents\\file" or "C:/User/Documents/file" If you're setting a file path in an R script or a configuration file like `.Rprofile`, make sure to use the correct format. If you're using RStudio, you can also set the working directory through the GUI to avoid these issues. If the issue persists, you may want to check your .Rprofile or any R scripts for incorrect file paths and correct them accordingly

@@milos-makes-maps how to set the working directory using GUI

@@balakumar-de4pb Setting up the working directory through the GUI in RStudio is a straightforward process. Here's how you can do it: 1. Open RStudio and go to the "Files" tab on the lower right-hand pane. 2. Click on the "..." (more) button to open the navigation box. 3. Navigate to the desired folder where you want to set as your working directory. 4. Once you've found the folder, click on ''Set as Working Directory". This will change the current working directory to the one you selected, and any files you read or write will be saved in this directory. Remember to save your work before changing directories to avoid losing any unsaved changes.

Will look into it...

Dear Thiago, can you, please, try installing the latest version of terra from CRAN. Let me know if the issue persists

@@milos-makes-maps Unfornately yes, the error persists. The terra package is already the newest one. I go this warning message: Warning message: In class(object) <- "environment" : Setting class(x) to "environment" sets attribute to NULL; result will no longer be an S4 object

If you are working on Mac, let's try using mask from terra in step 4. Try running this code: get_forest_cover_cropped <- function() { country_borders_vect <- terra::vect( country_borders ) forest_cover_cropped <- terra::crop( forest_cover_mosaic, country_borders_vect ) forest_cover_masked <- terra::mask( forest_cover_cropped, country_borders_vect ) return(forest_cover_masked) } forest_cover_masked <- get_forest_cover_cropped()

Thank you, glad you find it useful!

Thank you for your kind words and for following my content!

It's my pleasure!

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that you found the tutorial helpful. If you're experiencing issues with packages unloading, it might be related to your system's memory or the specific version of R you're using. Don't worry, though; there's no need to throw anything away. You can always reinstall the packages or try updating them to the latest version. Keep exploring and experimenting, and you'll master 3D land cover mapping in no time! If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out.

The error message you’re seeing in RGUI suggests that there’s an issue with an escape character in a string. In R, backslashes (\) are used as escape characters, which means they have a special meaning when used within strings. If you want to include a literal backslash in a string, you need to escape it by using two backslashes (\\). This error often occurs when setting file paths on Windows systems where the backslash is the default directory separator. If you’re setting a file path or working directory in your R profile or an R script that runs on startup, make sure all backslashes are properly escaped. If you’re not sure where the error is coming from, check any .Rprofile or .Renviron files in your home directory or R’s home directory, as well as any scripts or commands that run when R starts up. If the issue persists, you might want to consider using the file.path() function to construct file paths, as it automatically uses the correct file separator for your operating system: file.path("C:", "myfolder", "myfile")

Thanks! I do use VSCode and have a video on how to set up R in it

@@milos-makes-maps Thank you. Although I'm not sure it would be suitable for a linux user.

I'm glad you're enjoying it!

Thanks Victor, glad you enjoyed it! Let me know if you need any help

Thank you!

Thanks man, glad you like it!

You're facing an issue with the version of the rayrender package in R. My suggestion would be to install the version of rayshader and its dependencies that I used in my video. Please start a new R session and then run one chunk at a time (select option 3 when prompted): if ( !require( "remotes" ) ) { install.packages( "remotes" ) } remotes::install_version( "rayshader", version = "0.35.7", repos = "cran.us.r-project.org" ) remotes::install_version( "rayimage", version = "0.9.1", repos = "cran.us.r-project.org" ) remotes::install_version( "rayvertex", version = "0.7.9", repos = "cran.us.r-project.org" ) remotes::install_version( "rayrender", version = "0.29.6", repos = "cran.us.r-project.org" )

Hey, here’s a step-by-step guide to help you: 1. Navigate to the Repository: Go to the main page of the repository on GitHub. 2. Find the ‘Code’ Button: Look for a green button labeled ‘Code’ near the top of the repository. 3. Download Options: Click on it, and you’ll see an option to download the ZIP file of the repository.

@@milos-makes-maps Thanks I found myself. Thank you for everything you do, you motivate me

Thank you for reaching out and for your kind words! I'm glad to hear you're interested in the R-ArcGIS bridge. To answer your question, I haven't personally used ArcGIS online notebooks, so I can't offer insights from my own experience. However, I believe any tool that helps streamline our workflow and makes data more accessible is worth exploring. I encourage you to give it a try and see how it works for you. And if you have any more questions about the r-arcgis bridge, feel free to ask. Happy mapping!

Sorry, I made a typo: it should be windowsize. I changed it in my GitHub repo now

@@milos-makes-maps Thanks Milos, check these details in code as well. Country and Region Polygons: Here there is a small typo. Regions_sf was defined but then region_sf was used instead of regions_sf. Also, there is a typo in the function sf::st_geometry(region_sf), where it should be sf::st_geometry(regions_sf). 2D Map: Here, I think the pallete argument should be palette in the hcl.colors function. Object Rendering: There seems to be a typo in the terrra::project(crs_lambert) function, which should be terra::project(crs_lambert). Inset Map: Here, in the call to geom_sf() there is a missing comma in linewidth = .1, which should be linewidth = 0.1. after that: everything works great. My congratulations for your work.
