Package website: release
link2GI provide some functions which make it a bit
easier to connect straightforward the common open source GI software
packages to the R-biotop. It supports both the use of wrapper packages
and the direct API-use via system calls. It focuses on
Linux and WindowsX operating systems but
nevertheless it should also work with OSX.
If you have several versions installed or if you want to use the full
power of the GI software it will be a nice and helpful tool to deal with
some strange behaviours and requirements. Especially helpful is the
support of OTB, the GDAL-Python functions and
a simple support to use any SAGA version via the CLI.
Hopefully RSAGA and Rsagacmd will join forces
in one package in the future. Anyway the current releases (1.4.1) of
RSAGA as well as Rsagacmd will work with the
environment settings as provided by linkSAGA.
link2GIis up to CRAN. For the installation of the stable
version please use install.packages("link2GI").
However it is strongly recommended to install the latest stable version:
# devtools package
devtools::install_github("r-spatial/link2GI", ref = "master")
# remotes package
remotes::install_github("r-spatial/link2GI",ref = "master")To utilize the power of the open source GI tools from within
R you need to install them first. As a first promising
opportunity to do fulfill most of the requirements you may install
QGIS, GRASS, SAGA-GIS and
Orfeo-toolbox. For further Information have a look at the
Installation
guide for link2GI related Software.
initProj for
reproducible projectsinitProj provides a complete and flexible working
environment for GI projects. The focus is on a simple but powerful
structure. The basic framework is formed by a defined folder structure,
initial scripts and configuration templates as well as optional Git
repositories and an renv environment. A corresponding
RStudio project file is also created. It supports the automatic
installation (if needed) and loading of the required libraries including
various standard setup skeletons to simplify project initialisation.
The function creates a skeleton of the skeleton scripts
main-control.R, pre-processing.R,
10-processing.R and post-processing.R, and
creates corresponding parameter configurations files stored as
yaml files in scr/configs/. The script
src/functions/000_settings.R holds all specific project settings. Easy
access to all project paths is provided via the list variable
dirs, which enables simple, efficient and reproducible
project management and data handling.
For further Information have a look at the article Reproducible Projects.
When using RStudio, a new project can be created by simply selecting the Create Project Structure (link2GI) template from the File -> New Project -> New Directory -> New Project Wizard dialogue.
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.
