Settlements: the capital, aimag centres and soum centres
Source:R/layers-vector.R
mn_settlements.RdPoints for Ulaanbaatar, the 21 aimag centres and the soum centres, handy
for labelling maps. Locations come from Wikidata; a few soums without
coordinates there use a point inside the soum (see location_source).
Usage
mn_settlements(
type = c("capital", "aimag_centre", "soum_centre"),
within = NULL,
lang = NULL,
crs = NULL
)Arguments
- type
Which settlements to return: any of
"capital","aimag_centre"and"soum_centre". By default, all.- within

Language of the
namecolumn:"en"(English, as in NSO tables),"mn"(Cyrillic) or"mns"(Latin with diacritics, MNS 5217). Defaults togetOption("mongolmaps.lang", "en").- crs
Coordinate reference system of the result.
NULL(default) keeps longitude/latitude (EPSG:4326). Use"albers","lcc"or"utm"for a projection suited to Mongolia (seemn_crs()), or any value accepted bysf::st_crs().
Value
An sf tibble of points with columns admin_pcode (the aimag
or soum the settlement is the centre of), soum_pcode, aimag_pcode,
type, name, name_en, name_mn, name_mns and location_source.
