New features

• fd_occ_euforest(): new function to access the EU-Forest dataset with more than 500,000 forest tree species occurrences in Europe.

Bugs

• fd_inventory_spain(): returned wrong results with process_level = 1 or process_level = 2 combined with ifn = 4 for regions that contain more than 1 province inside the same province argument. For instance, province = "Canarias" includes 2 provinces (35 and 38), but previously it was treated as one.

Enhancements

• fd_inventory_spain(): some plots have tree data on the field but no coordinates recorded. Before this version, this data was ignored. Now, a row with empty geometry and warning were added.

New features

• fd_forest_glad() and fd_canopy_height(): gain a new argument merge = FALSE. If the tiles are not merged, the function will return the result much faster as a SpatRasterCollection.

• fd_forest_extent_glad(): eliminated. Functionality extended with fd_forest_glad().

• fd_inventory_spain(): gains a new argument process_level, which can be:

  • process_level = 0: raw data is downloaded
  • process_level = 1: data is processed at the tree level
  • process_level = 2: data is processed at the stand level

Enhancements

• Better functions feedback with cli R package

• Make the package lighter eliminating useless internal functions. purrr, rvest, rlang, and crayon dependencies are not needed anymore.

Bugs

• Fix foresdata url issues according to #9 and CRAN policies.
