The sf
package can read shapefiles and provides an object that works like a data frame to which other variables can be added. In your case, that would be a variable for neighborhood name, one for the estimated probability and, potentially, a categorical variable, such as yes/no, low/high, etc. ggplot
can produce a map, called a thematic or chloropleth map, to illustrate the data.
See 5. Plotting Simple Features in the sf vignette for examples. My somewhat outdated post may help with some of the ggplot
details.
The two problems that you are most likely to face are
- Installing the external library dependencies for sf
- Understanding how ggplot treats continuous and discrete scales differently
See the FAQ: How tod a minimal reproducible example reprex
for beginners and come back with a representative sf
object that illustrates any plotting problems you run into.
