# rnaturalearth 1.0.1

# rnaturalearth 1.0.0

## Breaking changes

This is a breaking changes release that ends support to `sp` object in
favour of more modern interfaces (`sf` and `terra`). Although that
`sp` is still available on CRAN, it is no longer being actively
developed (https://geocompx.org/post/2023/rgdal-retirement/). This is
the main reason that motivated the choice to transition toward `sf`
(the default) and `terra`.

Users can choose either get an `sf` or `SpatVector` using the
`returnclass` argument:

```
ne_countries(returnclass = "sf")
ne_countries(returnclass = "sv")
```

Affected functions are `ne_countries()`, `ne_coastline()`,
`ne_states()`, `ne_load()` and `ne_download()`.

If changing the return type to `sf` creates too many problems to your
existing code, you can still convert it back to `sp` :

```
countries <- ne_countries(returnclass = "sf")

# option 1
sf::as_Spatial(countries)


# option 2
as(countries, "Spatial")
```

`maptools`: https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/04/12/evolution.html

## Bugfix

- Correctly downloading and reading raster object (#96, closes #52).

# rnaturalearth 0.3.4

- This is a maintenance release that document/use the new special sentinel "\_PACKAGE".

# rnaturalearth 0.3.3

- Using `lifecycle` to indicate that support of `sp` object will be
  eventually dropped. Users should now use `ne_download(returnclass =
  "sf")`, instead of `ne_download(returnclass = "sp")`.

- `terra` is now included in the Imports section.

# rnaturalearth 0.3.2

- Added new maintainer and contributors ([#62](https://github.com/ropensci/rnaturalearth/issues/62)).
- Using terra over raster ([#63](https://github.com/ropensci/rnaturalearth/pull/63))

  - See
    <https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/04/12/evolution.html#packages-depending-on-sp-and-raster>
    and
    <https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/12/14/evolution2.html#deprecations-in-retiring-packages>

- Fixes broken data download links.  Now using Amazon hosted URLs as
  - the primary source for downloading data
  - ([#48](https://github.com/ropensci/rnaturalearth/issues/48),
  - [#64](https://github.com/ropensci/rnaturalearth/issues/64)).

# rnaturalearth 0.3.0 2021-10-11

- fix rnaturalearthhires installation #47 thank you Ian Taylor for #43

# rnaturalearth 0.2.0

- add to river options in ne_download() by adding to
  data_list_physical.csv fixing
  [#23](https://github.com/ropensci/rnaturalearth/issues/23)

- update data to new version [Natural Earth
  v4.1](https://www.naturalearthdata.com/blog/miscellaneous/natural-earth-v4-1-0-release-notes/)
  released May 2018.

geography: Replace RMD160 checksums with BLAKE2s checksums

All checksums have been double-checked against existing RMD160 and
SHA512 hashes

geography: Remove SHA1 hashes for distfiles

geography/R-rnaturalearth: import R-rnaturalearth-0.1.0

Facilitates mapping by making natural earth map data from
<http://www.naturalearthdata.com/> more easily available to R users.
