Rmarkdown import latest webcam image?

I'm writing a learnr::tutorial markdown for my students, and would like one of the slides to show the latest image from the webcam on Palmer Station, Antarctica:

https://www.usap.gov/videoclipsandmaps/palwebcam.cfm

However, the field doesn't register as an image - likely because it is some sort of gallery?

I cannot use the page link, the image adress, or the image to insert into:

![](https://www.usap.gov/videoclipsandmaps/SouthPoleWebcam/Pal00095.jpg?=92056851.6281)

Many thanks if there is anyone who knows how to do this.

Solution

  • enter image description here

    {r, echo=FALSE, fig.width=12}
knitr::include_app("https://www.usap.gov/videoclipsandmaps/SouthPoleWebcam/Pal00095.jpg?=92056851.6281")

    If you render the html in the Viewer pane, be sure to pop out to web browser to see the iFrame.
