Retrieves spatial geometries for INE geographic levels via the
mapSpain package, which sources
boundaries from Instituto Geografico Nacional / GISCO. Geometries are
returned with a GEOID column that matches the geographic codes returned
by get_ine_demog(), so the two can be joined directly.
get_ine_geo(
geo_level = c("municipality", "province"),
region = NULL,
moveCAN = TRUE,
can_gap_km = 60
)Character, one of "municipality" or "province".
Optional character vector to subset by region name (regular expressions allowed).
Logical, shift the Canary Islands next to the mainland for
compact national maps (default TRUE). Pass FALSE to keep their real
geographic coordinates.
Numeric, the gap in kilometers left between the shifted
Canary Islands and the closest point on the mainland coast (default
60). Only used when moveCAN = TRUE. Smaller values move the
islands closer.
An sf object with columns GEOID, NAME, and geometry,
projected to ETRS89 / UTM zone 30N (EPSG:25830). When moveCAN = TRUE
and the shift was applied, an sfc rectangle marking the shifted
islands' extent is attached as the "can_box" attribute (used by
plot_ine_map() to draw an inset frame).
