rapr 1.1.1 (2025-11-14)

• Fixed handling of empty geometries in get_rap_production16day_table() (#15, #16)
• More graceful handling of server-side HTTP errors (#14, #17)

rapr 1.1.0 (2025-09-10)

• Added get_rap_production16day_table() as an interface to the tabular 16-day production API

rapr 1.0.0 (2025-05-12)

• Initial CRAN release!
• Major get_rap() interface updates
  • Added source argument to toggle between RAP 30m ("rap-30m"; Landsat) and RAP 10m ("rap-10m"; Sentinel 2) products
    • For details on new RAP 10m products see: http://rangeland.ntsg.umt.edu/data/rangeland-s2/README and citation("rapr")
  • Added template argument for setting target grid for projection of result.
    • Default behavior (template=NULL) will return a SpatRaster in the native grid system of requested RAP source.
    • For a large area of interest (that spans multiple UTM zones and source="rap-10m") standard “EPSG:5070” grid system will be used when template is not set by the user
  • Added vrt argument. When vrt=TRUE the merging/resampling process is bypassed and a GDAL VRT file is generated to reference the source directly.
  • Added legacy argument. Default (legacy=FALSE) behavior is to use GDAL via terra for all raster and vector data processing. Set legacy=TRUE to use sf gdal_translate implementation from rapr 0.1.x.

Breaking changes

• Default behavior is to use GDAL via terra for all raster data processing. Set legacy=TRUE to use sf gdal_translate implementation from rapr 0.1.x.
• SpatRaster objects passed as x are now used as template so that the output conforms with the input grid system. To avoid this behavior either specify template with the desired grid template, or convert the SpatRaster to a polygon extent with terra::as.polygons(ext=TRUE) (or similar)
• progress argument has been replaced with verbose; for legacy=TRUE

Other changes

• Simplified vignette: replaced knitr and rmarkdown with litedown
• Simplified unit testing suite: replaced testthat with tinytest
