Remove ows4R from book #825
Comments
So just to understand you removed ows4R section because your bookdown complains about about rgdal and warning on the fact it will be dismissed next year? |
I'm going to have a look at the rgdal use in ows4R, and if I can remove its suggested use by another stuff. I believe it would be worth extending ows4R section to other than features/vector. ows4R now supports other standards, including coverage data access through WCS, data processing through WPS, and partly data grabing through WMS. |
Hi @eblondel thanks for getting back about this and apologies for the sudden decision. Broadly yes, I removed the code section: but not because of warnings, but because it seems the package could not be installed on the image on which the book was being build, causing not only the book build to fail but I think also the geocompkg CI also. I have had issues installing |
Well that's the first time I get report of installation problems. For the image can you point to error logs that you get during ows4R installation, i will have a look. For the rgdal issue, i'm remove it from ows4R. |
This said, the example above would need to be updated because of changes in the FAO geoserver you used. That one will not work anymore |
For now. For context see #817.
Content below for future reference.
As of October 2018, only ows4R is on CRAN.
The package's basic functionality is demonstrated below, in commands that get all
FAO_AREAS
as we did in the previous code chunk:^[To filter features on the server before downloading them, the argument
cql_filter
can be used. Addingcql_filter = URLencode("F_CODE= '27'")
to the command, for example, would instruct the server to only return the feature with values in theF_CODE
column equal to 27.]
There is much more to learn about web services and much potential for development of R-OWS interfaces, an active area of development.
For further information on the topic, we recommend examples from European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) services at github.com/OpenDataHack and reading-up on OCG Web Services at opengeospatial.org.
