With this short, hands-on tutorial, you learn how to collect online data, massage it into a reasonable form, and work with it using R facilities to interact with web servers, parse HTML and XML, and more. Rather than use canned sample data, you'll plot and analyze current home foreclosure auctions in Philadelphia. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis practical mashup exercise shows you how to access spatial data in several formats locally and over the Web to produce a map of home foreclosures.
