If you are a regular user of #Rstats for geospatial work, would you say that the #RSpatial ecosystem is, broadly-speaking, in a good place following the recent retirements of GDAL etc?

Specifically, I am interested in whether you think the #RSpatial workflow is user-friendly and efficient.

Edit:
I am referring to the rgdal and rgeos package retirements.

**geometa** provides an essential object-oriented data model in R, enabling users to efficiently manage geographic metadata.

The package facilitates handling of ISO and OGC standard geographic metadata and their dissemination on the web.

In this interview, we speak with **Emmanuel Blondel**, the author of geometa, ows4R, geosapi, geonapi and geoflow—key R packages for geospatial data management.

This {vrtility} 📦 project is still a WIP but I think the potential and flexibility of the approach is huge - basically just let #gdal do all the work. I've finally got my head around how the sequence of things should fit together but it is still missing a few important features. If you're interested in #rspatial #remotesensing I'd love your thoughts and feedback. powered by #gdalraster 🚀

Fun with shapes: Scripted mapping in R or Python
"Let's face it, QGIS is the Excel of geospatial analysis. Sure, doing simple mapping in it and ArcGis is a blast, but executing complex, reproducible joins and measurements can be a real drag. Whether you choose R or Python, follow along from mapping basics to more complex techniques that will make your next geospatial analysis a walk in the park." By Alexandra Kanik
