In mapSpain: Administrative Boundaries and Static Map Tiles for Spain

SIANE bulk download

Description

This function downloads zipped data from SIANE to cache_dir and extracts the relevant files.

Usage

esp_siane_bulk_download(
  cache_dir = NULL,
  update_cache = FALSE,
  verbose = FALSE
)

Arguments

cache_dir	Character string. A path to a cache directory. See Caching.
update_cache	Logical. If TRUE, refreshes the cached file and forces a new download. Defaults to FALSE.
verbose	A logical value indicating whether to display informational messages.

Value

An invisible character vector with the full paths of the extracted files. See Examples.

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.
