khroma: Colour Schemes for Scientific Data Visualization

Colour schemes ready for each type of data (qualitative, diverging or sequential), with colours that are distinct for all people, including colour-blind readers. This package provides an implementation of Paul Tol (2018) and Fabio Crameri (2018) doi:10.5194/gmd-11-2541-2018 colour schemes for use with 'graphics' or 'ggplot2'. It provides tools to simulate colour-blindness and to test how well the colours of any palette are identifiable. Several scientific thematic schemes (geologic timescale, land cover, FAO soils, etc.) are also implemented.
