In obrl-soil/slga: Data Access Tools for the Soil and Landscape Grid of Australia

slga 1.2.0 [CRAN]

• Added dependency on s2 required by upcoming sf 1.0 release. This means checks on whether an aoi intersects a target layer can be run on the sphere, increasing accuracy. Code should run consistently whether sf is using s2 or GEOS.
• Migrated from Travis-CI to Github Actions

slga 1.1.2 [CRAN]

• Bugfix: removed one unit test for compatibility with sf 0.9-7
• Improved CRS handling behind the scenes. No change in functionality.

slga 1.1.1 [CRAN]

• Update CRS handling to be compatible with modern PROJ; sf 0.9 is now required
• All urls are now https

slga 1.1.0 [CRAN]

• User must now specify output directory when writing retrieved data to disk (CRAN rules).

slga 1.0.2

• slight change to crs string fix addressing inconsistent behaviour across proj versions
• smaller example dataset for CRAN

slga 1.0.1

• Little tweaks and tidyups

slga 1.0.0

• Added functions get_soils_point() and get_lscape_point(), which return non-spatial data summaries. The value for a pixel directly under a point can be requested, or statistical summaries of the area within n pixels of a point.
• API change in get_soils_data() - component names for requesting soils data are different ('VAL' vs 'value' etc)
• Functions get_soils_data() and get_lscape_data() no longer write rasters to your working directory unless you tell them to (use option write_out = TRUE).

slga 0.8.0

• Refactored aoi processing and main request functions (all under-the-hood stuff)
• Bugfix - EPSG:4283 should no longer be misinterpreted as EPSG:4151 in other software (e.g. QGIS)
• pkgdown doco
• progress bars for staged requests

slga 0.7.0

• http error handling
• staged requests where aoi larger than 1x1 degrees
• exported check_avail() for making sure a given soil attribute is available on a given product.

slga 0.6.0

• S3 methods for validating aoi (internal only). Covered: numeric vector, raster, rasterExtent, sf, sfc.
• Bugfix for tempfile names.
• Bugfix for bounding box.
• Better crs checking.
• Outputs in GDA94 like they should have been already.

slga 0.5.0

• data type fixes for lscape, more efficient download method.
• Added metadata_soils() and metadata_lscape() to provide access to service metadata in XML or JSON format.

slga 0.4.0

• Add access to landscape datasets - API change per below.
• Renamed get_slga_data() to get_soils_data().
• Added get_lscape_data() for landscape parameter retrieval, plus supporting internal functions.
• Modified slga_product_info to contain landscape parameters.
• Extended vignette to cover landscape dataset retrieval.

slga 0.3.0

• Updated README.md.
• Added travis and codecov.

slga 0.2.0

• Retrieval functionality wrapped in get_slga_data() to get raster values and confidence intervals in one object. For more complex requests involving multiple depth ranges, attributes, products or combinations thereof, use this with a map-style function e.g. base::lapply() or purrr::map().
• Added product/attribute availability checking.
• Now using easier to remember names for products.
• Added unit tests.
• Added vignette.

slga 0.1.0

• basic functionality - ability to extract a single raster subset using a bounding box.
