Plotting 1 attribute of a shp file in R

I'm trying to select & plot just one of these 9 attributes from my shape file, but nothing seems to work. Could you help?

Solution

  • It helps if you make a fully reproducible example so that fixers can run the code and be certain that they have resolved the issue.

    Here is an example that you will have to modify for your own needs.

    library(sf)
fname <- system.file("shape/nc.shp", package="sf") # read a shape file that comes with the sf package
nc <- st_read(fname)
plot(nc)  # plot all the data

    enter image description here

    plot(nc['AREA']) # plot one of the attributes
