Overview

About

Maintained by Jonathan CallahanFirst published 2015-02-1122 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

A suite of conversion functions to create internally standardized spatial polygons data frames. Utility functions use these data sets to return values such as country, state, time zone, watershed, etc. associated with a set of longitude/latitude pairs. (They also make cool maps.)

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)

install.packages("MazamaSpatialUtils", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("MazamaScience/MazamaSpatialUtils")

Development version from MazamaScience/MazamaSpatialUtils. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-mazamaspatialutils

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.
