Plot 2 tmap objects side-by-side

问题


Example:

I want to plot two tmap plots side by side, which are generated by this code.

library(tmap)
library(gridExtra)

data(World)

plot1=
  tm_shape(World, projection = "merc") + 
  tm_layout("", inner.margins=c(-1.72, -2.05, -0.75, -1.56)) +
  tm_borders(alpha = 0.3, lwd=2)

plot2=
  tm_shape(World, projection = "merc") + 
  tm_layout("", inner.margins=c(-1.72, -2.05, -0.75, -1.56)) +
  tm_borders(alpha = 0.3, lwd=2)

plot1 and plot2 work fine as single stand-alone plots:

Problem:

I have problems to put both plots side-by-side. I tried:

grid.arrange(plot1, plot2) throughs an error Error in arrangeGrob(..., as.table = as.table, clip = clip, main = main, : input must be grob!. I thought that this should work (using gridExtra) as tmap seems to be based on the grid graphics system.

Also par(mfrow=c(1,2)) does not work as it shows only one plot (guess this is related as tmap plot does not follow the base graphics system).

Question:

How can I plot both objects plot1 and plot2 side-by-side (ncol=2)?

Update:

Regarding the proposed grid-based solution, I get overlapping plots instead of two column arranged plots.

Nice question!

grid.arrange doesn't support tmap plots (yet?) in the same way it supports ggplot2 plots.

There are two options:

1) Use small multiples by assigning two values to an aesthetic (see examples from tm_facets). Your plots don't use aesthetics, but you can trick this as follows:

tm_shape(World, projection = "merc") + 
  tm_fill(col=c("white", "white")) +
  tm_layout("", inner.margins=c(-1.72, -2.05, -0.75, -1.56)) +
  tm_borders(alpha = 0.3, lwd=2)

2) Use the grid package to define viewports:

library(grid)
grid.newpage()
pushViewport(viewport(layout=grid.layout(1,2)))
print(plot1, vp=viewport(layout.pos.col = 1))
print(plot2, vp=viewport(layout.pos.col = 2))

Another thing, rather than clipping the shape with negative inner margins, you could also use the bounding box arguments inside tm_shape:

tm_shape(World, projection = "merc", xlim=c(-2e6, 6.5e6), ylim=c(-4e6, 8.5e6)) + 
  tm_borders(alpha = 0.3, lwd=2)

It produces the same map, but it the code a little cleaner.

tmap_arrange()

https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/tmap/tmap.pdf

data(World)
w1 <- qtm(World, projection = "eck4", title="Eckert IV")
w2 <- qtm(World, projection = "merc", title="Mercator")
w3 <- qtm(World, projection = "wintri", title="Winkel-Tripel")
w4 <- qtm(World, projection = "robin", title="Robinsin")

current.mode <- tmap_mode("plot")
tmap_arrange(w1, w2, w3, w4)
tmap_mode(current.mode)

I was wondering if in the meantime it has become possible to plot the 5 maps in the following example side by side without switching to tm_facets(ncol=5).

data(NLD_prov, NLD_muni)

tmap_mode("plot")
tm_shape(NLD_muni) +
tm_fill(c("pop_0_14", "pop_15_24", "pop_25_44", "pop_45_64", "pop_65plus"),
        style="kmeans", 
        palette=list("Oranges", "Greens", "Blues", "Purples", "Greys"),
        title=c("Population 0 to 14", "Population 15 to 24", "Population 25 to 44",
                "Population 45 to 64", "Population 65 and older")) +
tm_shape(NLD_prov) +
tm_borders() +
tm_format_NLD(frame = TRUE, asp=0)
