\title{Plot administrative districts of Germany}
\description{Displaying data
  over the administrative districts of Germany}
\usage{
germany.plot(vect,  col=NULL, zlim=range(vect), legend=TRUE, 
             main=NULL, cex.axis=1, cex.main=1.5, add=FALSE, ... )
}
\arguments{
\item{vect}{vector of length 544}
\item{col}{color scheme to be used. By default uses \code{colorRampPalette(brewer.pal(9,"Blues"))(100)}.}
\item{zlim}{the minimum and maximum values for which colors should be
  plotted, defaulting to the range of \code{data}.}
\item{legend}{Should the legend be added, see \sQuote{Details}.}
\item{main}{an overall title for the plot.}
\item{cex.axis}{label size of legend.}
\item{cex.main}{label size of overall plot title.} 
\item{add}{logical, if true adds to current plot.}
\item{\dots}{additional arguments passed to \code{polygon}.}

and \url{https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_Landkreise_in_Deutschland}
%The code of \code{map.landkreis} is very similar to
%\code{germany.map} from the package \pkg{INLA}.}
}
\details{The legend is only added, provided (a) function
  \code{image.plot} is available.\cr

  The perfect position of the legend is an art per se and depends on
  various \code{par} parameters. One possiblity for finer control is to
  not plot it and to manually call the function
\code{image.plot} of \pkg{fields}.}
