| kml_layer-methods {plotKML} | R Documentation |
Writes any Spatial* object (from the sp package), spatio-temporal object (from the ST-class package) or Raster* object (from the raster package) to a KML file (connection) as a separate layer. Various aesthetics, i.e. ways to represent target variables, can be set via colour, transparency, size, width, shape arguments. Their availability depends on the class of the object to plot.

additional aesthetics arguments; see details for each |
An XML object that can be further parsed to a KML file (via an open connection).
