Title: Compute the Rectangular Statistical Cartogram
Version: 0.5.4
Author: Christian Panse
Maintainer: Christian Panse <Christian.Panse@gmail.com>
Description: Provides an interface and a C++ implementation of the RecMap MP2
  construction heuristic (see 'citation("recmap")' for details). This algorithm
  draws maps according to a given statistical value (e.g. election results,
  population or epidemiological data). The basic idea of the RecMap algorithm is
  that each map region (e.g. different countries) is represented by a
  rectangle. The area of each rectangle represents the statistical value given
  as input (maintain zero cartographic error). Documentation about 'RecMap' is
  provided by a vignette included in this package and a 'RecMap gallery' site at
  <http://cartodraw.science/recmap/gallery>.
