CatastRo 1.1.0

• The reference index now groups functions by Spanish Cadastre service, alongside the existing task-based sections.
• CLI messages now display braces in paths, URLs and argument values literally.
• CatastRo users can now configure HTTP timeout and SSL verification with the CATASTRO_TIMEOUT and CATASTRO_SSL_VERIFY environment variables. The existing catastro_timeout and catastro_ssl_verify options still take precedence (#82).
• CatastRo now preserves existing cached files when a refresh fails and validates required query values before making a request.
• catr_atom_get_*() functions now respect exact territorial office matches, propagate cache refresh options and preserve the update date of each ATOM entry.
• catr_atom_search_munic() now filters results when to matches exactly one territorial office.
• catr_clear_cache() now reports incomplete deletions instead of announcing success when files remain.
• catr_ovc_get_rccoor() now preserves the correct X and Y coordinates when the API returns an error.
• catr_ovc_get_rccoor_distancia() now reports API errors and returns the queried coordinates and SRS.

CatastRo 1.0.2

• Improve internal maintenance, cli messages, roxygen2 metadata and package documentation.

CatastRo 1.0.1

• Improve documentation for cache behavior, INSPIRE services and OVC reference data.

CatastRo 1.0.0

This major release introduces a full overhaul of the codebase and test suite. All requests now use httr2. Cached files are organized into topic-based subdirectories for easier management.

Because of internal changes, existing caches are not compatible with this release and must be rebuilt.

Persistent cache directories now use tools::R_user_dir() instead of rappdirs::user_config_dir(). If you already have a cache directory, CatastRo displays a one-time migration message.

The package now requires R ≥ 4.1.0 and dependency updates improve both performance and maintainability. Data retrieval functions return tidy objects (tibbles, sf objects with tibble data or SpatRaster objects).

Major changes

• Minimum required R version is now 4.1.0.
• Refactor the code and test suite to improve stability.
• Switch API requests to httr2.
• Add new options, especially for macOS and Linux users:
  • On SSL errors, use options(catastro_ssl_verify = 0) to disable SSL verification.
  • Query timeout can be controlled with options(catastro_timeout = 300) (default value). Check httr2::req_timeout() for details.
• Reorganize the cache into topic-based subdirectories.

Note: Previous caches must be recreated.

Compatibility and performance

• Require R ≥ 4.1.0.
• Update dependencies:
  • Add: cli, lifecycle and withr.
  • Remove: png and slippymath.
• Return tidy objects consistently.
• Migrate the vignette engine to Quarto.

Deprecations

• The cache argument is deprecated in all functions.

New features

• Add inspire_wfs_get(), a general function that downloads data from any INSPIRE-based service endpoint.

Other updates

• Review and improve documentation.
• Rewrite the full test suite.
• Use cli for all messages.

• Add a helper function for detecting cache_dir: catr_detect_cache_dir().
• Update documentation and tests.

CatastRo 0.2.3

• Update documentation and package maintenance files.
• catr_wms_get_layer() is now compatible with mapSpain (>= 0.7.0).

CatastRo 0.2.2

• Add tidyterra to Suggests.
• catr_get_code_from_coords() now handles sfc objects (#26).
• catr_clear_cache() now has config = FALSE as the default.

• Fix CRAN tests.

CatastRo 0.2.0

Overall revamp of the package. Major changes to the API.

• Add ATOM INSPIRE capabilities:
  • Addresses: catr_atom_get_address(), catr_atom_get_address_db_all().
  • Cadastral parcels: catr_atom_get_parcels(), catr_atom_get_parcels_db_all().
  • Buildings: catr_atom_get_buildings(), catr_atom_get_buildings_db_all().
• Add WFS INSPIRE capabilities:
  • Addresses: catr_wfs_get_address_bbox(), catr_wfs_get_address_codvia(), catr_wfs_get_address_postalcode(), catr_wfs_get_address_rc().
  • Cadastral parcels: catr_wfs_get_parcels_neigh_parcel(), catr_wfs_get_parcels_parcel(), catr_wfs_get_parcels_parcel_zoning(), catr_wfs_get_parcels_zoning().
  • Buildings: catr_wfs_get_buildings_bbox(), catr_wfs_get_buildings_rc().
• Add WMS INSPIRE capabilities: catr_wms_get_layer().
• Add a new interface for OVC services. Deprecated previous functions in favor of the new API:
  • The new SRS reference dataset in ?catr_srs_values replaces coordinates.
  • catr_ovc_get_rccoor_distancia() replaces near_rc().
  • catr_ovc_get_rccoor() replaces get_rc().
  • catr_ovc_get_cpmrc() replaces get_coor().
• Add precomputed vignettes.
