New functions

  • read_favela() with data of favelas and urban communities (source: IBGE) Closes #387.
  • read_polling_places() with data of polling places (source: TSE) Closes #184 and #242.
  • read_quilombola_lands() with data of officially recognized quilombola lands (source: INCRA) Closes #242.
  • remove_islands() to remove islands from Brazil. Closes #412.

Breaking changes

  • The year and date arguments can no longer be NULL; they must be explicitly
    specified. This change is intentional and is meant to encourage users to be more
    mindful of historical changes in the data.
  • The geom column has been renamed to geometry for consistency
  • The read_health_region() has been completely rewritten to allow users return
    more detailed output if needed
  • Functions like read_schools() and read_health_facilities() now use a
    combination of official spatial coordinates and coordinates found using the
    {geocodebr} package to improve spatial
    accuracy. See documentation of these functions.
  • The function lookup_muni() now has a year parameter. Closes #401.
  • The function and data read_comparable_areas() will be going under major
    changes. For now, this function is temporarily suspended.
  • The only year available so far for the functions read_urban_concentrations()
    and read_pop_arrangements()is 2010, and not 2015.

Major changes

  • Data files are now saved in .parquet. This improved performance to download
    and to read files, and allow integration with ducdkDB via {duckspatial} and with
    Arrow via {gearrow}. Closes #290
  • Most functions have a new argument output, which allow users to choose the
    output format. "sf" returns an sf to memory (default), "duckdb" returns a
    lazy spatial table backed by DuckDB via the duckspatial package, and "arrow"
    returns an Arrow dataset. Both "duckdb" and "arrow" support out-of-memory
    processing of large data sets.
  • All functions have a new argument verbose. If TRUE (the default), the
    function prints informative messages and shows download progress bar. If FALSE,
    the function is silent. Closes #400.
  • The function list_geobr() now has a boolean argument wide, so users can
    choose whether the output should be presented in wide or long format.
  • The function lookup_muni() now uses probabilistic match to find municipality
    names that users might input with typos. Closes #406.
  • The following functions now include the column code_state to allow users
    to filter the data directly in the function call: read_indigenous_land(),
    read_metro_area(), read_pop_arrangements() and read_urban_concentrations().
  • The following functions now include the column code_muni to allow users
    to filter the data directly in the function call: read_disaster_risk_area(),
    read_health_facilities(), read_neighborhood(), read_statistical_grid() and
    read_schools().

Minor changes

  • Several data fixes and data updates, addressing the following issues: 182, 247,
    249, 250, 267, 333, 340, 361, 369, 379, 384, 388, 389, 390, 391, 393, 404, 407.
