In mlr3spatial: Support for Spatial Objects Within the 'mlr3' Ecosystem

mlr3spatial 0.6.0

• fix: Throw an error when X and Y columns are present in an sf object

mlr3spatial 0.5.0

• compatibility: Work with new paradox version 1.0.0

mlr3spatial 0.4.1

• refactor: Use the terra::inMemory() function instead of @ptr.

mlr3spatial 0.4.0

• refactor: The data input of spatial_predict() accepts SpatRaster, stars sf RasterStack and RasterBrick objects now. A mlr3::TaskUnsupervised can still be passed but the argument name changed from task to newdata.
• fix: The log showed a warning when the estimated values per chunk were a floating number.

mlr3spatial 0.3.1

• chore: Remove rgdal dependency and require raster version 3.6-11.

mlr3spatial 0.3.0

• feat: Add prediction on vector data to spatial_predict().

mlr3spatial 0.2.1

• fix: Add "space" and "time" column role from mlr3spatiotempcv

mlr3spatial 0.2.0

• BREAKING CHANGE: TaskClassifST and TaskRegrST are used to train a learner with spatial data. The new tasks unify the work with mlr3spatiotempcv.
• BREAKING CHANGE: Raster objects cannot be used to create tasks for training anymore.
• BREAKING CHANGE: TaskUnsupervised is used to predict on rasters objects now. The new task type is more convenient for data without a response.
• feat: Add as_task_regr_st() and as_task_classif_st() from spatial objects.
• feat: Add as_task_unsupervised() from raster objects.
• feat: Task leipzig with land cover target.
• feat: data("leipzig") loads an sf object with land cover in Leipzig.
• feat: GeoTIFF and GeoPackage of Leipzig in extdata folder.
• refactor: Vector data is handled with DataBackendDataTable now and DataBackendVector is removed.
• BREAKING CHANGE: DataBackendRaster cannot be created from RasterLayer objects anymore.
• fix: spatial_predict() returned an unnamed response.
• fix: spatial_predict() wrote predictions to the wrong cell.
• BREAKING CHANGE: Remove demo_raster(), demo_stack_spatraster(), demo_stack_rasterbrick() and demo_rasterbrick() functions.
• feat: Prediction layer contains NA at raster cells with NA values in one or more feature layers.

mlr3spatial 0.1.2

• refactor: Stars objects are directly converted to terra objects now.

mlr3spatial 0.1.1

• fix: Compatibility to terra update.

mlr3spatial 0.1.0

• First version of mlr3spatial.
