The package remotes first needs to be installed from the CRAN

install.packages("remotes")

Then some packages which were removed from the CRAN may need to be installed directly from authors' repository. This is the case for dissUtils:

remotes::install_github('cran/dissUtils')

After installing remotesand dissUtils, biodivMapR should be ready for installation with the following command line in your R session:

remotes::install_github('jbferet/biodivMapR')

A tutorial vignette is available here.

The corresponding script is available in file examples/tutorial.R.
