that rgdal
, rgeos
and maptools
will be retired this
year, in October 2023.
Your use of rgdal
can be conveniently replaced by terra::project
and terra::writeVector
as shown in links from this week's blog https://r-spatial.org/r/2023/04/10/evolution3.html. You need to act now, best before June, latest October 2023.
Only three months remain to save this package. Please act now!
This package depends on (depends, imports or suggests) raster and one or more of the retiring packages rgdal, rgeos or maptools (https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/04/12/evolution.html). Since raster
3.6.3
, all use of external FOSS library functionality has been transferred to terra, making the retiring packages very likely redundant. It would help greatly if you could remove dependencies on the retiring packages as soon as possible.
