This data set covers the whole of Brazilian Semiarid as defined in the resolution in 23/11/2017). The original data comes from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) and can be found at https://www.ibge.gov.br/geociencias/cartas-e-mapas/mapas-regionais/15974-semiarido-brasileiro.html?=&t=downloads
read_semiarid(
year = 2017,
simplified = TRUE,
showProgress = TRUE,
cache = TRUE
)Numeric. Year of the data in YYYY format. Defaults to 2017.
Logic FALSE or TRUE, indicating whether the function
should return the data set with 'original' spatial resolution or a data set
with 'simplified' geometry. Defaults to TRUE. For spatial analysis and
statistics users should set simplified = FALSE. Borders have been
simplified by removing vertices of borders using st_simplify{sf} preserving
topology with a dTolerance of 100.
Logical. Defaults to TRUE display progress bar.
Logical. Whether the function should read the data cached
locally, which is faster. Defaults to cache = TRUE. By default,
geobr stores data files in a temporary directory that exists only
within each R session. If cache = FALSE, the function will download
the data again and overwrite the local file.
