Heads-up @Nowosad I plan to ask for a review today or tomorrow : )

Robinlovelace commented 4 years ago

Please take a look @Nowosad. I've pencilled in Monday as release date for this, sound reasonable? I reckon a topical example using R-spatial could be worthwhile, just to make the point that R is an outstanding environment for reproducible geographic data analysis code.

Ready for review @Nowosad !

@Robinlovelace I have read the text, and made some tiny changes. It is good, but I have a strange feeling that there is something missing. (You should not worry about it - I will think about it...). Two small things:

  1. I would suggest adding more explanation for readers on what is going on in the code in the first section (1. Installing spatial R packages on Ubuntu)
  2. I also think, it would be good to point the readers to places where to look for solutions when the R spatial packages installations fail. (E.g., googling the error message, search in sf issues, etc.)
