I already created a bubble plot using the following code:
library(ggplot2)
library(sp)
library(raster)
library(maps)
library(mapdata)
library(maptools)
lib
I am not sure if you still check SO. But, I leave one approach for you. You can play with the values in zoom to identify the best zoom for your purpose. The CRAN manual of ggmap
offers you more examples. Please have a look.
map <- get_map(location = 'netherlands', zoom = 7,
source = 'google',
maptype = 'satellite')
ggmap(map)
