    This document demonstrates different methods for creating spatial plots in R. It begins with the simplest approach using quilt.plot() to map latitude, longitude and a variable of interest. It then shows an improved method using expand.grid() to define spatial locations on a grid, simulating random fields over the locations with different covariance functions, and plotting the results with image.plot() while customizing the color palette.
