Arguments

x: an sf object, a simple feature collection. If x is used then spdf, df, spdfid and dfid are not.
spdf: SpatialPointsDataFrame or SpatialPolygonsDataFrame; if spdf is a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame symbols are plotted on centroids.
df: a data frame that contains the values to plot. If df is missing spdf@data is used instead.
spdfid: name of the identifier variable in spdf, default to the first column of the spdf data frame. (optional)
dfid: name of the identifier variable in df, default to the first column of df. (optional)
var: name of the numeric variable used to plot the symbols sizes.
inches: size of the biggest symbol (radius for circles, width for squares, height for bars) in inches.
fixmax: value of the biggest symbol. (optional)
symbols: type of symbols, one of "circle", "square" or "bar".
border: color of symbols borders.
lwd: width of symbols borders.
var2: name of the factor (or character) variable used to plot the symbols colors.
col: a vector of colors.
colNA: no data color.
legend.title.cex: size of the legend title.
legend.values.cex: size of the values in the legend.
legend.var.pos: position of the legend, one of "topleft", "top", "topright", "right", "bottomright", "bottom", "bottomleft", "left" or a vector of two coordinates in map units (c(x, y)).
legend.var.title.txt: title of the legend (numeric data).
legend.values.rnd: number of decimal places of the values in the legend.
legend.var.style: either "c" or "e". The legend has two display styles, "c" stands for compact and "e" for extended.
legend.var.frame: whether to add a frame to the legend (TRUE) or not (FALSE).
legend.var2.pos: position of the legend, one of "topleft", "top", "topright", "right", "bottomright", "bottom", "bottomleft", "left" or a vector of two coordinates in map units (c(x, y)).
legend.var2.title.txt: title of the legend (factor data).
legend.var2.values.order: values order in the legend, a character vector that matches var modalities. Colors will be affected following this order.
legend.var2.nodata: text for "no data" values
legend.var2.frame: whether to add a frame to the legend (TRUE) or not (FALSE).
add: whether to add the layer to an existing plot (TRUE) or not (FALSE).
