worlddatr

Creating choropleth maps to showcase the global distribution of studies or participants is a powerful way to visualise data, however, extracting the necessary information and data cleaning can often be time-consuming and burdensome. Some datasets use 3 digit ISO codes, while others use 2 digit or the just the name of the country. Country name is often problematic as they are not standardised.

Key features of worlddatr include:

• Pre-processed Datasets: Access to pre-cleaned datasets that are ready to merge with your data, reducing the time spent on data preparation.
• One-command Utilty: Functions that allow you to produce maps with a single command, while still providing control over customisation options such as colours, titles, and legends.
• Open Source and Community-driven: Being open-source, worlddatr invites users to build upon its code, tailor visualisations to their specific needs, and contribute improvements back to IDDO, enhancing the tool for the entire research community.

By using worlddatr, researchers can efficiently visualise and analyse global data trends, focusing more on their research and less on data manipulation.
