This package has been developed as a part of the Global Soil Information Facilities, which are developed jointly by the ISRIC Institute and collaborators.

The plotKML project summary page you can find here. See the complete list of functions and a list of additional settings. To submit a software bug, use the official package tracker. The fastest way to learn how plotKML works is to follow this tutorial. There is also a paper in the JSS on plotKML package functionality.

To submit a bug or future request please use the package tracker. The package is continuously updated and it is expected to become fully operational by early 2013.
