In mapSpain: Administrative Boundaries and Static Map Tiles for Spain

Boundaries of Spain from SIANE

Description

Returns the boundaries of Spain as a single sf POLYGON.

Usage

esp_get_spain_siane(moveCAN = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

moveCAN

A logical TRUE/FALSE or a vector of coordinates c(lat, lon). It places the Canary Islands close to Spain's mainland. Initial position can be adjusted using the vector of coordinates. See Displacing the Canary Islands in esp_move_can().

...

Arguments passed on to esp_get_ccaa_siane year Character string or number. Release year. It must use format YYYY (assuming end of year) or YYYY-MM-DD. Historical information starts as of 2005. resolution Character string or number. Resolution of the geospatial data. One of: "10": 1:10 million. "6.5": 1:6.5 million. "3": 1:3 million. epsg Character string or number. Projection of the map: 4-digit EPSG code. One of: "4258": ETRS89. "4326": WGS84. "3035": ETRS89 / ETRS-LAEA. "3857": Pseudo-Mercator. cache Logical. Whether to cache downloaded files. Defaults to TRUE. See Caching. update_cache Logical. If TRUE, refreshes the cached file and forces a new download. Defaults to FALSE. cache_dir Character string. A path to a cache directory. See Caching. verbose A logical value indicating whether to display informational messages.

Value

A sf object.

Caching

Functions that download data store files in cache_dir. When cache_dir is NULL, they use the active package cache, which defaults to a temporary directory. Set update_cache = TRUE to replace an existing cached file. See Caching strategies in esp_set_cache_dir() to configure a persistent cache.
