Download and Process Public Domain Works from Project Gutenberg

Download and process public domain works in the Project Gutenberg collection < https://www.gutenberg.org/>. Includes metadata for all Project Gutenberg works, so that they can be searched and retrieved.

'Microsoft Academic' API Client

The 'Microsoft Academic Knowledge' API provides programmatic access to scholarly articles in the 'Microsoft Academic Graph' (< https://academic.microsoft.com/>). Includes methods matching all 'Microsoft Academic' API routes, including search, graph search, text similarity, and interpret natural language query string.

Access the 'IBGE' Aggregate Data API from 'R'

'Tidyverse'-friendly interface to the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics ('IBGE') aggregate data 'API' < https://servicodados.ibge.gov.br/api/docs/agregados?versao=3>. Query aggregates, variables, localities, periods, and metadata from surveys and censuses conducted by 'IBGE'.

Setup, Run and Analyze 'NetLogo' Model Simulations from 'R' via 'XML'

Setup, run and analyze 'NetLogo' (< https://www.netlogo.org>) model simulations in 'R'. 'nlrx' experiments use a similar structure as 'NetLogos' Behavior Space experiments. However, 'nlrx' offers more flexibility and additional tools for running and analyzing complex simulation designs and sensitivity analyses. The user defines all information that is needed in an intuitive framework, using class objects. Experiments are submitted from 'R' to 'NetLogo' via 'XML' files that are dynamically written, based on specifications defined by the user. By nesting model calls in future environments, large simulation design with many runs can be executed in parallel. This also enables simulating 'NetLogo' experiments on remote high performance computing machines. In order to use this package, 'Java' and 'NetLogo' (>= 5.3.1) need to be available on the executing system.

Recodes Sex/Gender Descriptions into a Standard Set

Provides dictionary-based tools for recoding free-text gender responses into consistent categories while preserving gender diversity where possible. The package standardises spelling, capitalization, whitespace, and common variants through curated named character-vector dictionaries, supports either detailed or collapsed output categories, and can retain original unmatched responses for manual review. It also includes helpers for creating custom dictionaries from approximate string matches and a local interactive application for recoding uploaded data files.

Automate the Delineation of Urban River Spaces

Provides tools to automate the morphological delineation of riverside urban areas based on a method introduced in Forgaci (2018) . Delineation entails the identification of corridor boundaries, segmentation of the corridor, and delineation of the river space using two-dimensional spatial information from street network data and digital elevation data in a projected CRS. The resulting delineation can be used to characterise spatial phenomena that can be related to the river as a central element.

Interface to the Search API for 'PLoS' Journals

A programmatic interface to the 'SOLR' based search API (< http://api.plos.org/>) provided by the Public Library of Science journals to search their articles. Functions are included for searching for articles, retrieving articles, making plots, doing 'faceted' searches, 'highlight' searches, and viewing results of 'highlighted' searches in a browser.

Access 'EMODnet' Web Feature Service Data

Access and interrogate 'EMODnet' (European Marine Observation and Data Network) Web Feature Service data < https://emodnet.ec.europa.eu/en/emodnet-web-service-documentation#data-download-services>. This includes listing existing data sources, and getting data from each of them.

Tools for Spell Checking in R

Spell checking common document formats including latex, markdown, manual pages, and description files. Includes utilities to automate checking of documentation and vignettes as a unit test during 'R CMD check'. Both British and American English are supported out of the box and other languages can be added. In addition, packages may define a 'wordlist' to allow custom terminology without having to abuse punctuation.

Interactive, Complex Heatmaps

Make complex, interactive heatmaps. 'iheatmapr' includes a modular system for iteratively building up complex heatmaps, as well as the iheatmap() function for making relatively standard heatmaps.
