Hi,

Great package.
Small note that I observed that Cyprus is missing when you use gisco_get_countries with the option Region="Europe".

Error on the gisco page, link should be https://gisco-services.ec.europa.eu/pub/healthcare/gpkg/EU/EU.gpkg instead of https://gisco-services.ec.europa.eu/pub/healthcare/gpkg/EU.gpkg

Status

httr is superseded: only changes necessary to keep it on CRAN will be made. We recommend using httr2 instead.

Since Friday getting nuts2 geodata does not work for me, everytime i try run
nuts <- gisco_get_nuts(year = 2021, nuts_level = "3", resolution = "01", cache = TRUE, update_cache = TRUE)
I get an error https://gisco-services.ec.europa.eu/distribution/v2/nuts/geojson/NUTS_RG_01M_2021_4326_LEVL_3.geojson not reachable.

But when I type the url in a browser, I get to the GeoJson file.

It seems that some geojson are not reachables, but it can be opened in a browser.

provs <- gisco_get_nuts(
  country= "Spain",
  epsg = "4326",
  resolution = '03',
  nuts_level= "3"
)

oops! Sorry -- wrong repo.

When I try to run this code:

country_lines <- gisco_get_nuts(
  year = "2016",
  epsg = "3035",
  resolution = "20",
  nuts_level = "0",
  spatialtype = "BN",
  country = c("Czechia", "Germany", "Lithuania", "Estonia", "Italy", "Spain")
)

I get this map

ggplot(country_lines) + geom_sf()

However, if I use another spatialtype other than "BN", I get the correct countries (same applies to spatialtype = "LB":

country_lines <- gisco_get_nuts(
  year = "2016",
  epsg = "3035",
  resolution = "20",
  nuts_level = "0",
  spatialtype = "RG",
  country = c("Czechia", "Germany", "Lithuania", "Estonia", "Italy", "Spain")
)
ggplot(country_lines) + geom_sf()

Hi,

I maintain the countrycode package and it looks like the upcoming version will cause a break in your package. The issue seems minor, related only to a reference in the documentation:

Changes to worse in reverse depends:

Package: giscoR
Check: Rd cross-references
New result: WARNING
  Missing link or links in Rd file 'gisco_countrycode.Rd':

  See section 'Cross-references' in the 'Writing R Extensions' manual.

Sorry for the trouble!

GISCO services were unavailable earlier today. Running in v4-dev branch of eurostat package, I got the following message:

Of course it was probably different for users running on last CRAN release but I didn't test that. I just figured that we could be pre-emptive about such issues in the future and have a more descriptive message in case things go wrong because of server issues, in addition to "Please download manually" or "If you think this is a bug [...]", indicating the possibility of a problem being in the server.

The error message from disco-services.ec.europa.eu was 502 Bad gateway. Mozilla docs had a nice description of that (bold mine):

"A Gateway might refer to different things in networking and a 502 error is usually not something you can fix, but requires a fix by the web server or the proxies you are trying to get access through."

First of all, thank you so much for the package.

If I want to create a map of Nigeria, I only see the map (as in the outline) without the states nor state borders.

Imagining I want to compare the states of Nigeria, is it possible with your package?

Thank you.
