CatastRo 1.0.2

• This development cycle includes AI-assisted maintenance work to simplify internal code, improve cli messages, standardize roxygen2 metadata and make package documentation more consistent.

CatastRo 1.0.1

• Improve documentation for cache behavior, INSPIRE services and OVC reference data.

CatastRo 1.0.0

This major release introduces a full overhaul of the codebase and test suite. All requests now use httr2 and cached files are reorganized into topic-based subfolders for easier management.

Because of internal changes, existing caches are not compatible with this release and must be rebuilt.

Persistent cache directories now use tools::R_user_dir() instead of rappdirs::user_config_dir(). If you already have a cache directory in place, CatastRo displays a one-time message about this migration.

The package now requires R ≥ 4.1.0 and dependency updates improve both performance and maintainability. All functions return tidy objects (tibbles or sf objects with tibble data).

Major changes

• Minimum required R version is now 4.1.0.
• Refactor the code and test suite for improved stability.
• Switch API requests to httr2.
• New options (especially for macOS and Linux users):
  • On SSL errors, use options(catastro_ssl_verify = 0) to disable SSL verification.
  • Query timeout can be controlled with options(catastro_timeout = 300) (default value). Check httr2::req_timeout() for details.
• Reorganize the cache into topic-based subfolders.

Note: Previous caches must be recreated.

Compatibility and performance

• Require R ≥ 4.1.0.
• Update dependencies:
  • Add: cli, lifecycle, withr.
  • Remove: png, slippymath.
• Return tidy objects consistently.
• Vignettes engine has been migrated to Quarto.

Deprecations

• The cache argument is deprecated in all functions.

New features

• Add inspire_wfs_get(), a general function that downloads data from any INSPIRE-based service endpoint.

Other updates

• Review and improve documentation.
• Rewrite the full test suite.
• Use cli for all messages.

CatastRo 0.2.0

Overall revamp of the package. Major changes to the API.

• Add ATOM INSPIRE capabilities:
  • Addresses: catr_atom_get_address(), catr_atom_get_address_db_all().
  • Cadastral parcels: catr_atom_get_parcels(), catr_atom_get_parcels_db_all().
  • Buildings: catr_atom_get_buildings(), catr_atom_get_buildings_db_all().
• Add WFS INSPIRE capabilities:
  • Addresses: catr_wfs_get_address_bbox(), catr_wfs_get_address_codvia(), catr_wfs_get_address_postalcode(), catr_wfs_get_address_rc().
  • Cadastral parcels: catr_wfs_get_parcels_neigh_parcel(), catr_wfs_get_parcels_parcel(), catr_wfs_get_parcels_parcel_zoning(), catr_wfs_get_parcels_zoning().
  • Buildings: catr_wfs_get_buildings_bbox(), catr_wfs_get_buildings_rc().
• Add WMS INSPIRE capabilities: catr_wms_get_layer().
• Add a new interface for OVC services. Deprecated previous functions in favor of the new API:
  • New SRS database in ?catr_srs_values, replaces coordinates.
  • catr_ovc_get_rccoor_distancia() replaces near_rc().
  • catr_ovc_get_rccoor() replaces get_rc().
  • catr_ovc_get_cpmrc() replaces get_coor().
• Added pre-computed vignettes.

CatastRo 0.1.0

• Initial release.

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
