--- title: "Get started" output: rmarkdown::html_vignette vignette: > %\VignetteIndexEntry{Get started} %\VignetteEngine{knitr::rmarkdown} %\VignetteEncoding{UTF-8} --- **CatastRoNav** is a package that provide access to different INSPIRE API services of the [Cadastre of Navarre](https://geoportal.navarra.es/es/idena). With **CatastRoNav** it is possible to download spatial objects as buildings or cadastral parcels. ## INSPIRE Services > The INSPIRE Directive aims to create a European Union spatial data > infrastructure for the purposes of EU environmental policies and policies or > activities which may have an impact on the environment. This European Spatial > Data Infrastructure will enable the sharing of environmental spatial > information among public sector organisations, facilitate public access to > spatial information across Europe and assist in policy-making across > boundaries. > > *From * The implementation of the INSPIRE directive on the Cadastre of Navarre allows to retrieve spatial objects from the database of the cadastre: - **Vector objects:** Parcels, addresses, buildings, cadastral zones and more. These objects are provided by **CatastRoNav** as `sf` objects (see `?sf::st_sf`). ## Examples On this example we would retrieve the cadastral parcels of [Olite](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olite): ``` r library(CatastRoNav) # For getting coords library(sf) library(mapSpain) # Data wrangling and visualization library(dplyr) library(ggplot2) olite <- esp_get_capimun(munic = "Olite") %>% st_transform(25830) %>% # Small buffer of 100 m st_buffer(100) cp <- catrnav_wfs_get_parcels_bbox(olite) ggplot(cp) + geom_sf() ```

### Thematic maps We can create also thematic maps using the information available on the spatial objects. We would produce a visualization of the urban growth of Pamplona using **CatastRoNav**, replicating the map produced by Dominic Royé on his post [Visualize urban growth](https://dominicroye.github.io/en/2019/visualize-urban-growth/). In first place, we extract the coordinates of the city center of Pamplona using **mapSpain**: ``` r # Use mapSpain for getting the coords pamp <- esp_get_capimun(munic = "^Pamplona") # Transform to ETRS89 / UTM 30 N and add a buffer of 750m pamp_buff <- pamp %>% st_transform(25830) %>% st_buffer(1250) ``` Next step consists on extracting the buildings using the WFS service: ``` r pamp_bu <- catrnav_wfs_get_buildings_bbox(pamp_buff, count = 10000) ``` Next step for creating the visualization is to crop the buildings to the buffer we created before: ``` r # Cut buildings dataviz <- st_intersection(pamp_bu, pamp_buff) ggplot(dataviz) + geom_sf() ```

Let's extract now the construction year, available in the column `beginning`: ``` r # Extract 4 initial positions year <- substr(dataviz$beginning, 1, 4) # Replace all that doesn't look as a number with 0000 year[!(year %in% 0:2500)] <- "0000" # To numeric year <- as.integer(year) # New column dataviz <- dataviz %>% mutate(year = year) ``` Last step is to create groups based on the year and create the data visualization. We use here the function `ggplot2::cut_width()` to create different classes: ``` r dataviz <- dataviz %>% mutate(year_cat = ggplot2::cut_width(year, width = 10, dig.lab = 12)) # Adjust the color palette dataviz_pal <- hcl.colors(length(levels(dataviz$year_cat)), "Spectral") ggplot(dataviz) + geom_sf(aes(fill = year_cat), color = NA) + scale_fill_manual(values = dataviz_pal) + theme_void() + labs(title = "PAMPLONA", fill = "") + theme( panel.background = element_rect(fill = "black"), plot.background = element_rect(fill = "black"), legend.justification = .5, legend.text = element_text( colour = "white", size = 12 ), plot.title = element_text( colour = "white", hjust = .5, margin = margin(t = 30), size = 30 ), plot.caption = element_text( colour = "white", margin = margin(b = 20), hjust = .5 ), plot.margin = margin(r = 40, l = 40) ) ```
