This guide provides a basic overview of the use of the csodata package for new users. Install (if necessary) and load the package:
# # Install or update the package: # install.packages("csodata") library(csodata)
A list of all the table available on the cso StatBank can be downloaded with cso_get_toc
. You can search throught the title field using cso_search_toc
. (A "Loaded cached toc" or "Loaded cached data" message indicates that the data was retrieved from the cache, instead of being downloaded again.)
toc <- cso_get_toc() head(toc)
To download a dataset, use cso_get_data
and include a table code from the table of contents.
tbl1 <- cso_get_data("PEA19")
Metadata can be also downloaded or displayed to console:
meta1 <- cso_get_meta("CDP06") cso_disp_meta("CDP06")
Geographic vector data in ESRI shapefile format can be downloaded for use in mapping. This is a map of county councils and other local authorities in Ireland, there are many other maps available.
shp <- cso_get_geo("County Councils")
This data can be plotted using the leaflet
package. Here we plot the outline of each region.
# install.packages("leaflet") library(leaflet) leaflet(shp) %>% addTiles() %>% addPolygons()
The data which has been cached locally can be manually cleared once we are done with it.
cso_clear_cache()
