whitebox - 'WhiteboxTools' R Frontend
An R frontend for the 'WhiteboxTools' library, which is an advanced geospatial data analysis platform developed by Prof. John Lindsay at the University of Guelph's Geomorphometry and Hydrogeomatics Research Group. 'WhiteboxTools' can be used to perform common geographical information systems (GIS) analysis operations, such as cost-distance analysis, distance buffering, and raster reclassification. Remote sensing and image processing tasks include image enhancement (e.g. panchromatic sharpening, contrast adjustments), image mosaicing, numerous filtering operations, simple classification (k-means), and common image transformations. 'WhiteboxTools' also contains advanced tooling for spatial hydrological analysis (e.g. flow-accumulation, watershed delineation, stream network analysis, sink removal), terrain analysis (e.g. common terrain indices such as slope, curvatures, wetness index, hillshading; hypsometric analysis; multi-scale topographic position analysis), and LiDAR data processing.

Search, composite, and download 'Google Earth Engine' imagery with 'reticulate' bindings for the 'Python' module 'geedim' by Dugal Harris. Read the 'geedim' documentation here: <https://geedim.readthedocs.io/>. Wrapper functions are provided to make it more convenient to use 'geedim' to download images larger than the 'Google Earth Engine' size limit <https://developers.google.com/earth-engine/apidocs/ee-image-getdownloadurl>. By default the "High Volume" API endpoint <https://developers.google.com/earth-engine/cloud/highvolume> is used to download data and this URL can be customized during initialization of the package.

Taxonomic dictionaries, formative element lists, and functions related to the maintenance, development and application of U.S. Soil Taxonomy. Data and functionality are based on official U.S. Department of Agriculture sources including the latest edition of the Keys to Soil Taxonomy. Descriptions and metadata are obtained from the National Soil Information System or Soil Survey Geographic databases. Other sources are referenced in the data documentation. Provides tools for understanding and interacting with concepts in the U.S. Soil Taxonomic System. Most of the current utilities are for working with taxonomic concepts at the "higher" taxonomic levels: Order, Suborder, Great Group, and Subgroup.
