#' Key Biodiversity Areas
#'
#' This resource contains outlines of key biodiversity areas, which are areas
#' representing sites with specific importance for nature conservation.
#'
#' To use this data in mapme workflows, you will have to manually download the
#' global data set and point towards its file path on your local machine.
#' Please find the available data under the source link given below.

#' @name key_biodiversity_areas_resource
#' @keywords resource
#' @param path A character vector to the key biodiversity areas GPKG file.
#'   Note, that the file has to be downloaded manually.
#' @returns A function that returns an `sf` footprints object.
