Mapping Census Data in R


Details
We have short notice for this month's meetup because our speaker only has one day in New York and he has decided to spend it with us.
About the talk:
I will demonstrate open source work I have done which makes it easy to access and map US Census Data in R. That work has resulted in several R packages, including the popular package choroplethr (https://github.com/arilamstein/choroplethr).
