pkmapr: Pakistan Spatial Data Toolkit

pkmapr (pronounced P-K-Mapper) provides a clean, tidy interface to Pakistan’s official administrative boundary data from OCHA/HDX. It includes geometries at country, province, district, and tehsil level as sf objects compatible with the tidyverse and geospatial ecosystem, and includes utilities for geographic dictionary lookup, spatial measurement, and neighbour structure construction for use with spdep, ggplot2, leaflet, and related packages.
