spheatGPS_dep: DEPRECIATED: NEW FUNCTION IS spheatGPS() Reverse geocode GPS...

In nbarsch/spaceheater: Spatial Download and Analysis in R

Description

Reverse geocode latitude and longitude columns in a dataset with administrative layers determined by GADM layers

Usage

spheatGPS_dep(dataset, latcol, loncol, googleapikey, oride = FALSE,
  deleteGADM = TRUE)

Arguments

dataset	(character), the name of the data frame containing a column of place names. e.g. “mydataframe”
latcol	(character), the name of the column in the data frame containing LATITUDES “mylatcol”
loncol	(character), the name of the column in the data frame containing LONGITUDES “myloncol”
googleapikey	(character), a valid Google Maps API key. See https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/get-api-key to attain one.
oride	(logical), if you already have the specified shapefile downloads from GADM for each country in your data frame, you may override the GADM downloads included in a-heat using oride=TRUE. ONLY do this if you are sure you have the GADM shapefiles for every country in your set already in your R working directory. Default is oride=FALSE
deleteGADM	(logical), if after geocoding you would like to keep the GADM shapefiles downloaded in your working directory you may use deleteGADM=FALSE. The files can be large, especially if you have many countries in your dataset. Use carefully, could cause many large GADM shapefiles saved to your working directory. The default is deleteGADM=TRUE.

Examples

spheatGPS_dep("myDataframe", "myLatColumnName","myLonColumnName", "mygoogleapikey")

#Keeping all GADM shapefiles
spheatGPS_dep("myDataframe", "myLatColumnName","myLonColumnName", "mygoogleapikey", deleteGADM=FALSE)

#You already have the GADM shapefiles and don't want to redownload or delete them
spheatGPS_dep("myDataframe", "myLatColumnName","myLonColumnName", "mygoogleapikey", oride=TRUE, deleteGADM=FALSE)
