Get France coordinates

Loads and returns names, id, and coordinates for France statistical unit, to use with mapping functions and other "map" functions that accept an sf object.

Usage

loadCoordFR(unit = c("region"), year = c("2021", "2020", "2019"), 
            unit_subset = NULL, matchWith = NULL, dir = NULL, 
            use_cache = TRUE, use_internet = TRUE, crs = NULL)

Arguments

unit

the type of Italian statistical unit to link

year

year of the analysis

unit_subset

character vector of unit names to extract

matchWith

the type of id

dir

local directory in which shape files are stored

use_cache

a logical value indicating whether to use the cache

use_internet

a logical value indicating wheter the coordinates are downloaded from https://github.com/mappinguniverse/geospatial. If FALSE the maps downloaded during package installation will be used

crs

coordinate reference system. Look at st_crs

Details

Coordinates are download from the Github repo https://github.com/mappinguniverse/geospatial from FR folder https://github.com/mappinguniverse/geospatial/tree/master/FR.

If unit is not specified, country borders are loaded.

Value

A data.frame object with column indicating names, id, and the geometry to map.
