I will use leaflet package to plot randomly selected 50 PIN codes. I am adding the Region and Circle name in the popup.
library(leaflet)
library(tidyverse)
library(IndiaPIN)
data("IndiaPIN")
index = sample(nrow(IndiaPIN), 50)
data = IndiaPIN::IndiaPIN[index,]
l1 = data$Longitude
l2 = data$Latitude
pop = paste(data$Region, data$Circle, sep = ", ")
m = leaflet() %>%
addTiles() %>%
addMarkers(lng=l1, lat=l2, popup = pop)
