mapme.biodiversity 0.9.0

General

• prep_resources() received additional argument mode to
  get control over the reading mode (e.g. portfolio or asset)

• resources based on WorldClim now support selecting the spatial
  resolution and cover the historical timeseries starting from 1960 (#302)

• assets are now chunked into sub-components prior to indicator calculation thus
  parallelization now is applied to a single level (#322)

• chunk_size now is properly set to 100,000 ha as per documentation (before
  it was set to 10,000 ha) (#324)

• setting chunk_size=NULL is now allowed and skips chunking (#331)

• treecover indicators now trough a message if landscapemetrics is not
  installed (#325)

• setting outdir via mapme_options() now probes the destination by trying
  to write a GTiff file and errors if unsuccessful (#335)

• code previously using httr now uses httr2 (#330)

• new resources:

  • get_iucn() (#359)
  • get_chelsa() (#318)
  • get_ipbes_biomes() (#345)
  • get_humanfootprint() (#341)
  • get_gsw_time_series() (#354, @karpfen)
  • get_key_biodiversity_areas() (#349, @karpfen)
  • get_biodiversity_intactness_index() (#351, @karpfen)
  • get_vul_carbon(), get_man_carbon(), and get_irr_carbon() (#339)

• new indicators:

  • calc_slope() (#355, @fBedecarrats)
  • calc_ipbes_biomes() (#345)
  • calc_humanfootprint() (#341)
  • calc_gsw_time_series() (#354, @karpfen)
  • calc_species_richness() (#359)
  • calc_exposed_population() (#321)
  • calc_precipitation_chelsa() (#318)
  • calc_key_biodiversity_area() (#349, @karpfen)
  • calc_biodiversity_intactness_index() (#351, @karpfen)
  • calc_vul_carbon(), calc_man_carbon(), and calc_irr_carbon() (#339)

Bug fixes

• fixes transforming asset to the CRS of raster dataset
  in calc_deforestation_drivers() (#300)
• write_portfolio() now drops indicators with only NULL values instead
  of throwing an error (#303)
• get_ucdp_ged() now adds SRS infos to the footprints object (#313)
• uses binary writing mode for worldpop resource on Windows (#319)

Internal

• .check_portfolio() now checks if assetid has unique values and only
  overrides them if this in not the case (#305)
• .read_raster() now reads values into memory and removes VRT files on-exit (#311)
• .fetch_resources() now honors both creation and opening options (#315)
• httr calls are replaced with the respective httr2 equivalents (#329)
