Ratio Animating

[SamStruthers]

Working on creating Animations in tmap and ggplot/ggmap to display chemistry data as they relate at and between our Cameron Peak Sites.

Initially starting with discrete chem data but would love to build this out for continuous data

Tmap Issues:

• I can get it to display all the spatial data correctly and animate in "plot" mode but it lacks basemap (ie context)
• In view mode, I cannot get it to animate
  Ex:

ggmap Issues:

• I can get it to develop a basemap (which looks bad) and animate point data
• It does not animate line data correctly, colors look bad and graph is fuzzy.
  Ex:

Possible solutions:

• Merge what works between these two methods and have a wonderful animation of points, lines, basemap and colors/shapes that look good.
• Make it an animation with a slider rather than a gif?

@kathryn-willi or @ccmothes Can either of you shed light on these issues/ solutions and let me know if there is a better package/ something I'm missing? I can provide more specific code if needed but am mostly thinking from a general view
