Changes since CRAN release of Version 1.2.5

  • Remove the test suite, which hasn't been used since Version 1.2.0. All of the tests involved comparison of results from the now-defunct/archived gdalUtils package. Also removed the no longer needed testthat package from Suggests.

Version 1.2.5

  • Removed all uses of raster and rasterVis packages from examples in the function help pages, replacing them with function calls from the terra package.

Version 1.2.4

  • Added config_options= argument to all of the packaged utilities, supporting usage of any of the GDAL Utility config options documented at https://gdal.org/user/configoptions.html. (This change was enabled by the recent addition to an argument of the same name to sf::gdal_utils().)

Version 1.2.3

  • Removed rgdal from Suggests and added explicit dependency on raster of version >= 3.6-1, at request of Roger Bivand. (rgdal is soon to be retired, as is described in more detail here and here.)

Version 1.2.2

  • New functions gdalmdiminfo() and gdalmdimtranslate() support calls to those GDAL utilities.

  • gdalinfo() gains a quiet= argument that controls whether or not the information it returns is printed to the console. (Formerly, printing to the console was always on.)

  • gdalinfo() now (silently) returns a character vector containing the report returned by GDAL's gdalinfo utility. (Until now, it simply returned the name of the file supplied to its datasetname= formal argument.)

  • Added formal arguments corresponding to all new command line options added between GDAL versions 3.2.1 and 3.5.2.

  • Added dependency on package sf >= 1.0-9.

Version 1.2.1

  • Removed gdalUtils from Suggests, as it was removed from CRAN on 2022-04-18. (I had used it in this package's test suite, comparing its results with those of this package.)

  • Added rgdal to Suggests, to cure a CRAN complaint about its needing to be available to run the example in ?gdal_grid.

Version 1.2.0

  • Removed gRasterize() function and, as a result, the gdalUtilities package's dependency on the raster package and its dependencies. (Thanks to Jakub Nowosad for the suggestion.) The source code for gRasterize() is still available in the GitHub gist at https://gist.github.com/JoshOBrien/7cf19b8b686e6d6230a78a1a9799883b from where it may be sourced using, e.g., devtools::source_gist().
