<p>This article is about R packages that are relevant to Antarctic and Southern Ocean science. It includes packages in various states of maturity, including some in planning or very early stages of development.</p>
<p>Antarctic and Southern Ocean science covers a diverse range of topics within the geosciences, life sciences, physical sciences, and humanities and social sciences. This article is not intended to be an exhaustive list of packages that are relevant to all of those fields, but rather a synopsis of packages that are for one reason or another of particular interest to Antarctic and Southern Ocean researchers. The definition of “particular interest” is of course largely arbitrary. Packages listed here are generally expected to be at a useful stage of development, or if not, are seeking engagement/input from the wider community.</p>

<li><p><a href="https://github.com/AustralianAntarcticDivision/SOmap">SOmap</a> is in development, but aims to provide straightforward mapping functions for Southern Ocean (polar stereographic) maps, along with commonly-used management and contextual layers such as MPA boundaries and ocean fronts.</p></li>
<li><p><a href="https://github.com/SCAR/antanym">antanym</a> provides geographic place name data from the SCAR Composite Gazetteer of Antarctica, with plans to extend the coverage to subantarctic and informal gazetteers at a later date.</p></li>

<li><p><pkg>palr</pkg> provides colour palettes for data, based on some well known remotely sensed data sets for sea ice concentration, sea surface temperature and chlorophyll-<em>a</em>. Provides functions to convert raster <em>data</em> to raster <em>imagery</em> based on palette-mapping.</p></li>
<li><p><pkg>anglr</pkg> Gives direct access to generic 3D tools and provides a full suite of mesh-creation and 3D plotting functions. Suitable for use with a wide variety of spatial data including raster elevation models, trajectory data, polygonal surfaces, climate model output, and aerial photography.</p></li>
<li><p><pkg>ceramic</pkg> Download imagery tiles to a standard cache and load the data into raster objects, allows direct access to elevation data and satellite imagery for large areas at low resolution. (Very high resolution is available in <em>terrestrial</em> areas, but mostly only at lower latitudes).</p></li>
<li><p><pkg>reproj</pkg> Transform coordinates from a specified source to a specified target map projection. Suitable for use on generic data structures, or for creating custom transformation functions for formats not supported by mainstream tools.</p></li>
