This function plots a previously calculated trend.
plot_trend(df, column_name, maptype = "toner-lite", showmap = TRUE)Data frame containing at least 4 column:
lat (latitude), lon (longitude), slope and an additional user-defined column
column_name.

maptype. The default is "toner-lite", see ?ggmap::get_stamenmap for other options
set to FALSE to avoid plotting the map when running the function
Two plots, the first showing the distribution of the
trend over a map, based on the slope of the linear model that describes the
trend. The second plot shows a boxplot of the slope grouped based on the
column column_name and slope can be user-defined
(notice that in the plot the very extreme slope values are not displayed to avoid skewed visualisations).
