In mdsumner/where: Encapsulate Definition of Location

knitr::opts_chunk$set(
  collapse = TRUE,
  comment = "#>",

  out.width = "100%"
)

place

The goal of place is to specify a region simply as point (longitude,latitude) and a region around that.

This package does absolutely nothing with this information, but other packages might (get where I'm going ...?).

Data at virtualearth.

Installation

You can install the development version from GitHub with:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("mdsumner/place")

Example

This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common problem:

library(place)



## get me outta here
where()

Ok, get me somewhere specific.

where(156, 34, wh = 100000)  ## 100km either side of that location

More useful, give me a defined discretized region around a location.

where(147, -42, wh = c(1, 1) * 5000)

place("1 George St, Bathurst NSW", wh = c(1, 1.6) * 15000, dimension = 1024)
