Spatial analysis with R
View spatial_example.R
# An example of spatial analysis with R that involves grabbing data
# from a PostGIS database, joining to tabular data, projecting
# simplifying and creating an interactive map.
# This data is publicly available but requires some processing
# if you want the county boundaries you can find them here:
# cftp://ftp2.census.gov/geo/tiger/TIGER2016/COUNTY/
# The tabular data requires some processing but the raw data

Testing nested for loops with foreach
View nested_for_loops.R
# The idea I'm trying to test is if I can nest a parallel
# for loop inside another parallel for loop.
# The following does open up 4 cores with the first loop
# and opens an additional 3 cores with the second. I see
# seven running at one time, the four are turned off then
# 3 are turned off.
# I'm not sure if this is truly 7 parallel cores or if it's
# 4 then 3 sequentially.

Web mapping applications with multiple layers
View non-gis-y-webmapping.md

Suggestions from Twitter for more "elegant" web mapping applications

Specifically I'm looking for web mapping applications that include multiple layers and don't look like an ArcGIS clone -- perhaps something that looks like it was designed by a designer rather than a GIS tech :) This is a list of responses from Twitter, many of which do look GIS-y so more suggestions are welcome...
