#30DayMapChallenge: 30 days building maps (2) - tmap

The #30DayMapChallenge was initiated by Topi Tjukanov on Twitter. This is open to anyone who would like to show a map, whatever the software is. In this blog post, I will show maps made with R. I add constraints to myself for fun. This week, I will use {tmap} to create maps.This follows previous week blog post: #30DayMapChallenge: 30 days building maps (1) - ggplot2
