WFS INSPIRE: Download buildings

Description

Get the spatial data of buildings. The WFS Service allows to perform two types of queries:

• By bounding box: Implemented on catr_wfs_get_buildings_bbox(). Extract objects included on the bounding box provided. See Details.

• By cadastral reference: Implemented on catr_wfs_get_buildings_rc(). Extract objects of specific cadastral references.

Usage

catr_wfs_get_buildings_bbox(x, what = "building", srs, verbose = FALSE)

catr_wfs_get_buildings_rc(rc, what = "building", srs = NULL, verbose = FALSE)

Arguments

x	See Details. It could be: A numeric vector of length 4 with the coordinates that defines the bounding box: c(xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax) A sf/sfc object, as provided by the sf package.
what	Information to load. It could be: "building" for buildings. "buildingpart" for parts of a building. "other" for others elements, as swimming pools, etc.
srs	SRS/CRS to use on the query. To check the admitted values check catr_srs_values, specifically the wfs_service column. See Details.
verbose	Logical, displays information. Useful for debugging, default is FALSE.
rc	The cadastral reference to be extracted.

Details

When x is a numeric vector, make sure that the srs matches the coordinate values. Additionally, when the srs correspond to a geographic reference system (4326, 4258), the function queries the bounding box on EPSG:3857 - Web Mercator, to overcome a potential bug on the API side. The result is provided always in the SRS provided in srs.

When x is a sf object, the value srs is ignored. The query is performed using EPSG:3857 (Web Mercator) and the spatial object is projected back to the SRS of the initial object.

Value

A sf object.

API Limits

The API service is limited to a bounding box of 4km2 and a maximum of 5.000 elements.
