nl_geocode: Geocode adresses

In edwindj/nllocation: Geocoding for the Netherlands

Description

nl_geocode returns for a vector of addresses the most probable object/location. This function is more user friendly than the barebones webservices (nl_free), and uses the same function signature as ggmap::geocode.

Usage

nl_geocode(location, output = c("wgs84", "rd", "data.frame"),
  messaging = FALSE, type = "adres", ..., verbose = messaging)

nl_geocode_rd(location, messaging = FALSE, type = "adres", ...,
  verbose = messaging)

nl_geocode_df(location, messaging = FALSE, type = "adres", ...,
  verbose = messaging)

Arguments

location	string with location to be found
output	Should the output be a data.frame or sf object in wgs84 or Rijksdriehoekstelsel format?
messaging	Print the urls fired to the webserver (consistent with 'ggmap::geocode')
type	restrict the type of object that is returned from the service, see details for possible types.
...	will be passed to nl_free.
verbose	identical to messaging (consistent with other nlgeoder functions)

Details

type can be one or more of the following: "provincie", "gemeente" , "woonplaats", "weg", "postcode", "adres", "perceel", "hectometerpaal", "wijk", "buurt", "waterschapsgrens", "appartementsrecht".

Value

The return type can be specified and can be of type "sf" or "data.frame", depending on the value of output.

Examples

data("addresses")

r <- nl_geocode(addresses$Address)
r["weergavenaam"]
names(r)
