DONUT CHART
I personally don’t like pie charts that much, I prefer donut charts, they take up less space and the center can be used for extra annotations. In ggplot2 to get the “Donut” you design a bar chart (geom_bar) and then just bend it (coord_polar) at the extremities to get a donut.
To reproduce the chart below, you can download the data from the RLadies Tbilisi github webpage, Session 9 on Plotting.
Alternatively here’s the dput(-ted) data:
structure(list(X = 1:3, variable = structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L), .Label = "Export of Services", class = "factor"), type = structure(c(3L, 2L, 1L), .Label = c("Remaining", "Transportation", "Travel"), class = "factor"), year = c(2012L, 2012L, 2012L ), value = c(55.5, 33.4, 11.1), geo = c(NA, NA, NA), pos = c(27.75, 72.2, 94.45)), .Names = c("X", "variable", "type", "year", "value", "geo", "pos"), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -3L))
