Hi Eliza Try this:
library("maps") library("mapdata") map('worldHires') map('worldHires', 'Ireland') Don't know in which resolution the hires is. You need to find out yourself. If the resolution is to low please contribute ;-) Otherwise there are geographical resources on the internet in different formats, e.g. ESRI shape files or others. Google for that: https://www.google.dk/search?q=Ireland+shape+file&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:da:official&client=firefox-a&channel=sb&gws_rd=cr&ei=1YMsU4uUJcikkgXZ_4HwCQ See the first hit: http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=ae74a8497a1041669a9d2165a0f450b6 In most cases there are R packages dealing with the different formats. Just google the CRAN.
