Project: Topographical Map of southern Africa

This was a project inspired by Milos Popovic. In essence, it involved using an R script that downloads elevation data, and then crops and fills it accordingly with appropriate colours. With a specific focus on southern Africa (including Lesotho and Swaziland, as well as parts of Namibia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, and Mozambique), we slightly tweaked the script to overlay South Africa’s border.

Creating the map is well documented in Milo’s YouTube video, and he really did all the hard work! We just slightly modified it.

 

We specifically used R for our analyses, and you can find the full script below.

 

So, download it and have fun!
