add_granularity_geo_to_data_set: Add a granularity_geo column to a data set

In csdata: Structural Data for Norway

Add a granularity_geo column to a data set

Description

Derives the geographic granularity label from the location_code column and adds it as a new granularity_geo column, modifying x in place. When location_reference is NULL the granularity is inferred from the location code prefix; when a reference table is supplied, it is looked up directly.

Usage

add_granularity_geo_to_data_set(x, location_reference = NULL)

Arguments

x	A data.table containing a column named location_code.
location_reference	A data.table with columns location_code and granularity_geo to use for lookup. When NULL (default), granularity is derived from the location code prefix (e.g. "county_nor03" -> "county").

Value

x, invisibly, with the granularity_geo column added or updated.

Examples

library(data.table)
data <- data.table(location_code = c("nation_nor", "county_nor03", "blah"))
csdata::add_granularity_geo_to_data_set(data)
print(data)

library(data.table)
data <- data.table(location_code = c("nation_nor", "county_nor03", "blah"))
csdata::add_granularity_geo_to_data_set(data, location_reference = csdata::nor_locations_names())
print(data)
