computes the necessary number of tiles from a bounding box and a zoom level
NumTiles(lonR, latR, zoom = 13, CheckExistingFiles = TRUE, tileExt = ".png", tileDir = "~/mapTiles/OSM/", verbose = 0)
lonR |
longitude range |
latR |
latitude range, |
zoom |
zoom level |
CheckExistingFiles |
logical, if TRUE check if files already exist and only download if not! |
tileExt |
image type of tile |
tileDir |
map tiles are stored in a local directory, e.g. "~/mapTiles/Google/" |
verbose |
level of verbosity |
tuple with number of tiles for lon and lat extent
