Raster files as part of package? #5

Open ChloeRN opened 2 years ago

The workflow uses several data files that are necessary for the spatial mapping. Specifically:

A raster file for Norway: Norway.tif (450 KB)
A directory containing several shape files for municipalities (33.7 MB)

Any chance that those could be "wrapped into" the package? Alternatively, we could upload them somewhere where we could easily download them from using an R-function. Ideas?

I suspect they might be too huge for sitting within the package - we can try that route first though. Otherwise we put them on osf.io and write a function to find and unpack them (either the user runs this or we put it in the package onLoad)
