As it was advised I added rcosmo to Spatial.ctv and submitted PR to ctv/Spatial.ctv.

Please enter an issue at https://github.com/r-spatial/task_viewshttps://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/9exNC1WZ5rt6r82WhYwdVI?domain=github.com, and possibly make a PR to ctv/Spatial.ctv.

Dear Professor Bivand

I write to you as the Maintainer of CRAN Task View: Analysis of Spatial Data.

Recently the package rcosmo was uploaded to CRAN: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rcosmo/index.htmlhttps://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/GwcvC2xZ6vCVL7PycMeWKy?domain=cran.r-project.org

Could you please consider including rcosmo in the Task View: Analysis of Spatial Data.

The package fits the following topics.

  • Classes for spatial data: rcosmo provides simple access to spherical and HEALPix data. It extends standard dataframes for HEALPix-type data.

  • Handling spatial data: rcosmo offers various tools for geometric transformations, computations, and statistical analysis of spherical data.

  • Visualisation: rcosmo provides several tools to interactively visualize HEALPix data, in particular, to plot data in arbitrary spherical windows.

  • Geostatistics: rcosmo offers various geostatistics methods for spherical data: descriptive statistics, entropy based methods, covariance-variogram methods, etc. Most of rcosmo features were developed for Cosmic Microwave Background data, but they can also be used for any spherical data.

I am ready to provide more information, if required.

Sincerely yours, Andriy Olenko

OK, thanks. This will go to the main ctv package and CRAN in a few weeks.
