R package for accessing the Geographic Name Resolution Service
The GNRS package for R (a.k.a. the RGNRS) provides users with access to the Geographic Name Resolution Service (GNRS) API in R. The Geographic Name Resolution Service takes in the names of political units and standardizes them following https://www.geonames.org/ . More information on the GNRS can be found on the BIEN website (https://bien.nceas.ucsb.edu/bien/tools/gnrs/), and code underlying the GNRS can be found on Github at https://github.com/ojalaquellueva/gnrs.
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.
