title: Plot lat/lon points on OpenStreetMap Using R
body: <p>I am trouble wrapping my head around projection. My points for a place in Northern Europe ends up in Mid Africa. </p>
  
  <p>My code goes as follow. </p>
  
  <pre><code>#Loading packages
  
  library(OpenStreetMap)
  library(rgdal)
  library(ggplot2)
  
  #defining world map
  map &lt;- openmap(c(70,-179), c(-70,179))
  plot(map)
  
  #Finding my work place in Northern Europe (Ørbækvej 100, Odense, Denmark from here: https://www.latlong.net/convert-address-to-lat-long.html)
  subscr&lt;-data.frame(lat=c(55.381640),
                     lon=c(10.433600))
  
  #I am not sure what this does, but found on the web for a map in Germany: (https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/209166/plotting-bubbles-on-top-of-openstreetmap-in-r) 
  coordinates(subscr)&lt;-~lat+lon
  proj4string(subscr)&lt;-CRS("+init=epsg:4326")
  points(spTransform(subscr,osm()))
  #as can be seen using this method the dot turns up in Eastern Africa
  
  
  symbols(y = subscr$lon, x = subscr$lat, circles = 1, add = TRUE,
          inches = 0.0001, bg = "darkgreen")
  #as can be seen using the method the dot turns up in Western/Mid Africa
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can anyone explain or even help me to get the dot placed in Denmark, Northern Europe?</p>
