Load spatial data and ensure projection matching

Description

load_spatial is a helper function that loads spatial data (vector or raster) and ensures the projection information matches exactly that selected for the overall analysis.

Usage

load_spatial(x, proj.info, vec = FALSE, wd.loc, path.in)

Arguments

`x`	Character string specifying the file name containing the spatial object.
`proj.info`	Desired projection string in EPSG code format (`"EPSG:XXXX"`), common to all spatial objects in the analysis.
`vec`	Logical indicator of whether the spatial data to be loaded is in vector format (`TRUE`) or raster data (`FALSE`; default).
`wd.loc`	Character string identifying the base directory containing both input and output data folders.
`path.in`	Character string identifying the relative path from the base directory (`wd.loc`) to where input data are stored. Defaults to an Input_Data folder within the base folder.
