In bcgov/bcmaps: Map Layers and Spatial Utilities for British Columbia

Get Canadian Digital Elevation Model (CDED) as a terra object

Description

Get Canadian Digital Elevation Model (CDED) as a terra object

Usage

cded_terra(
  aoi = NULL,
  tiles_50K = NULL,
  .predicate = sf::st_intersects,
  dest_vrt = tempfile(fileext = ".vrt"),
  ask = interactive(),
  check_tiles = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

aoi	Area of Interest. Currently supports sf and sp polygons, stars and raster objects.
tiles_50K	a character vector of 1:50,000 NTS mapsheet tiles
.predicate	geometry predicate function used to find the mapsheets from your aoi. Default sf::st_intersects.
dest_vrt	The location of the vrt file. Defaults to a temporary file, but can be overridden if you'd like to save it for a project
ask	Should the function ask the user before downloading the data to a cache? Defaults to the value of interactive().
check_tiles	Should the tiles that you already have in your cache be checked to see if they need updating? Default TRUE. If you are running the same code frequently and are confident the tiles haven't changed, setting this to FALSE will speed things up.
...	Further arguments passed on to terra::rast()

Value

a terra object of the cded tiles for the specified area of interest

Examples
