>From your description, I am **guessing** that you may not want a "spatial
map" (including projections) at all, but rather something like a level
plot. See ?levelplot in the lattice package for details. Both I am sure
ggplot2 has something similar.

Apologies if I havemisunderstood your intent/specifications.

Cheers,
Bert
