gecko.worldclim.load

Download the latest version of worldclim to your gecko work directory. 
If you have not yet setup a work directory, it will be be setup as if running 
<code>gecko::gecko.setDir()</code> with <code>gisPath = NULL</code>.
This is a large dataset that is prone to fail by timeout if downloaded 
through R. Instead of using this function you can run gecko.setDir() (if you 
haven't yet) and download the files at 
https://geodata.ucdavis.edu/climate/worldclim/2_1/base/wc2.1_30s_bio.zip or 
https://geodata.ucdavis.edu/climate/worldclim/2_1/base/wc2.1_10m_bio.zip. 
Unzip their contents correspondingly to the folders "./worldclim/1 km" or 
"./worldclim/10 km" inside the folder returned by gecko.getDir().

Includes a collection of geographical analysis functions aimed primarily at ecology and conservation science studies, allowing processing of both point and raster data. Now integrates SPECTRE (<https://biodiversityresearch.org/spectre/>), a dataset of global geospatial threat data, developed by the authors.
