In SchoolDataIT: Retrieve, Harmonise and Map Open Data Regarding the Italian School System

SchoolDataIT 0.2.6

• Minor changes: removed an hyper-reference from the documentation

SchoolDataIT 0.2.5

• Major changes: fixed error in Set_DB function not allowing to run 'nstud_filter_by_grade'; allows to insert grouped 'input_nstud' input in Set_DB; allows 'Util_Invalsi_filter' to filter multiple years; allows 'Get_AdmUnNames' to work with any generic past or present date (function call input has changed from c(year, "mm_dd") to "yyyy-mm-dd")

SchoolDataIT 0.2.4

• Major changes: allows 'Util_nstud_wide' to both filter schools with class size in an order-specific interval, and to filter at the level of school grade rather than at the school level
• Minor changes: fixed some urls in .Rd files
• Fixed 'Get_nteachers_prov' to correctly download 2015/16 data

SchoolDataIT 0.2.3

• Adapted 'Get_Invalsi_IS' to the new format of the input DB (experimental)

• 'Map_Invalsi' can now work with input data from 'Util_Invalsi_filter'

SchoolDataIT 0.2.2

• Enforced gentle failure

• Changed default palette to 'viridis'

• Possible to plug numeric and grouped school buildings data into 'Set_DB'

• Changed source URL format in Get_Invalsi_IS description

SchoolDataIT 0.2.1

• Experimental features: integrated the counts of students by school running time in the 'nstud' workflow; the user can now include safety certifications in the school buldings DB (not active by default since it requires extra computational time other than downloading time)

• Minor changes: function 'Get_Shapefile' can now provide either the boundaries or the centroids of NUTS-3 and LAU administrative units; fixed warning message in 'Group_nstud'; 'Map_DB' allows to map municipality data at province level

SchoolDataIT 0.2.0

• Removed 'Get_RiskMap' because the input dataset does not appear to be currently available.

• Redirected 'Get_AdmUnNames' to a specific repository of input datasets due to changes in provider website.

• Removed 'readxl' from dependencies since no xls input files are scraped anymore.

SchoolDataIT 0.1.3

• Fixed bug due to geometry field in functions 'Map_DB' and 'Map_SchoolBuildings'; corrected argument 'col.rev' to 'col_rev' in function 'Map_Invalsi'

SchoolDataIT 0.1.2

• Minor changes: fixed 'Set_DB' for the case in which Invalsi Data must not be included; extended internal function 'School.order' to work with the schools in the Valle d'Aosta region; renamed 'data' the input dataframe of internal function 'Group_BroadBand'; renamed 'Registry_from_registry' and 'Registry_from_buildings' the arguments previously referred to as 'Registry2' and 'Registry'.

SchoolDataIT 0.1.1

• Implemented gentle failure methods in html reading.

SchoolDataIT 0.1.0
