Fetch gadm mapping shapefiles

Description

Retrieve AREAdata gadm mapping shapefiles specified by spatial scale (GID). These vectors are cached as GeoPackage files.

Usage

fetch_gadm_sfs(
  gid = 0,
  cache_location = NULL,
  refresh_cache = FALSE,
  basereq = ad_basereq(),
  call = rlang::caller_env()
)

Arguments

gid	the spatial scale to retrieve (0 = country-level, 1=province-level...).
cache_location	path to cache location (defaults to a temporary user directory, or one set by set_default_ohvbd_cache()).
refresh_cache	force a refresh of the relevant cached data.
basereq	the url of the AREAdata database (usually generated by ad_basereq()). If NA, uses the default.
call	The env from which this was called (defaults to the direct calling environment).

Value
