The goal of mapindiatools is to serve as a container
package for the maps data used in mapindia package. This
data has been separated to keep the size of the mapindia
package manageable and facilitate easier maintenance, while enabling
more frequent updates to the Indian map data frame without relying on
mapindia package updates.
The geojson files are stored in the data-raw/geojson_files folder.
These files were read and appropriately modified using the
build_mapping_data() function and saved as gpkg files in
the inst/extdata folder. The centroids were also calculated using the
compute_centroids() function.
Note: The 3-digit code11 codes for districts were merged with the 2-digit state codes to create a 5-digit code for the districts.
You can install the development version of mapindiatools from GitHub with:
# install.packages("pak")

library(mapindiatools)I would like to thank pdil

package. I would also like to thank datta07 for the geojson files.
