geodata is an R package for downloading geographic data. This is the development version for the Excellence in Agronomy initiative of the CGIAR. This is developed specifically for the AgWISE decision support system.
This package facilitates access to climate, elevation, soil, crop, species occurrence, and administrative boundary data, and is a successor of the getData()
function from the raster package.
You can install the released version of geodata from CRAN with:
install.packages("geodata")
You can install the development version of geodata from GitHub with:
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("AgWISE/geodata")
