merge_eurostat_geodata #146

Closed jessicaRjes closed 4 years ago

jessicaRjes commented 5 years ago

Hi,

i installed the actual eurostat release via install.packages("eurostat") and library(devtools) install_github("ropengov/eurostat") after calling merge_eurostat_geodata i get the error message: _Error in merge_eurostat_geodata(data = tgs_es, geocolumn = "geo", resolution = "1", : could not find function "merge_eurostatgeodata"

Is the function not available anymore? What is the alternative for this function?

Thanks in advance!

Some material was moved to ropengov/eurostat_geodata earlier. It seems we removed this; the idea has been to provide a more throroughly thought package to support eurostat map visualizations & geospatial aspects. We'll have a meeting next Tuesday and will have a look. @muuankarski may have additional tips meanwhile.

Thanks Antagomir. How was the meeting? Could you have a look? Again: What is the alternative for this function?

ketevani commented 5 years ago

I have the same problem with "merge_eurostat_geodata" command. Have you solved it?

antagomir commented 5 years ago

Hi - there are new geospatial visualization examples in the tutorial and in a blog post Do these help?

muuankarski commented 5 years ago

merge_eurostat_geodata() was hidden back in spring 2018 https://github.com/rOpenGov/eurostat/commit/463cf8ab651c5ac0946bccd6cb181bdca964411e as we migrated into sf-class. You can join data.frames (or tbl_df) with sf using dplyr::*_join()-functions

Some simple example of the replacement join intended for merge_eurostat_geodata() would be much appreciated. The cheatsheet on RStudio's website still uses this function. E.g. the fertility example there could be replicated using join.

antagomir commented 4 years ago

Since we are not currently supporting merge_eurostat_geodata(), after switching to sf class, I would instead propose that we remove this function from cheat sheet, and possibly create alternative examples (suggestions welcome). Any comments?

We have also updated the cheat sheet at RStudio while ago: https://github.com/rstudio/cheatsheets/raw/master/eurostat.pdf
