Description

This function downloads geospatial datasets from the National Geostatistical Framework at different levels of spatial aggregation. These datasets include a summarized version of the National Population and Dwelling Census (CNPV) with demographic and socioeconomic information for each spatial unit.

Usage

download_geospatial(
  spatial_level,
  simplified = TRUE,
  include_geom = TRUE,
  include_cnpv = TRUE
)

Value

data.frame object with downloaded data.

Arguments

spatial_level

character with the spatial level to be consulted:

• "DPTO" or "department": Department.

• "MPIO" or "municipality": Municipality.

• "MPIOCL" or "municipality_class": Municipality including class.

• "SETU" or "urban_sector": Urban Sector.

• "SETR" or "rural_sector": Rural Sector.

• "SECU" or "urban_section": Urban Section.

• "SECR" or "rural_section": Rural Section.

• "ZU" or "urban_zone": Urban Zone.

• "MZN" or "block": Block.

simplified

logical for indicating if the downloaded spatial data should be a simplified version of the geometries. Simplified versions are lighter but less precise, and are only recommended for easier applications like plots. Default is TRUE.

include_geom

logical for including (or not) the spatial geometry. Default is TRUE. If TRUE, the function will return an "sf" data.frame.

include_cnpv

logical for including (or not) CNPV demographic and socioeconomic information. Default is TRUE.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # identical(tolower(Sys.getenv("NOT_CRAN")), "true")
# \donttest{
departments <- download_geospatial("department")
head(departments)
# }
