devtools::install_github('cmerow/rangeModelMetaData')

You may need to install the devtools package first with install.packages('devtools').

rangemodelmetadata's Issues

dependency on retiring spatial infrastructure packages

Email April 1:

rangeModelMetadata has strong dependence on at least one of rgdal,
rgeos or maptools, but does not seem to use any functionality in code.
The usage may have been in raster, which now uses terra instead, or may
be in examples or vignettes. Please move all use of rgdal, rgeos or
maptools to Suggests: and protect any use against these packages not
being present. The packages will be archived in October 2023. See
https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/04/12/evolution.html,
https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/12/14/evolution2.html and

Dear Maintainer,

rangeModelMetadata depends on (depends, imports or suggests) raster
and one or more of the retiring packages rgdal, rgeos or
maptools (https://r-spatial.org/r/2022/04/12/evolution.html). Since
raster 3.6.3, all use of external FOSS library functionality has
been transferred to terra, making the retiring packages very likely
redundant. It would help greatly if you could remove dependencies on the
retiring packages as soon as possible.

Please also see https://r-spatial.org/r/2023/04/10/evolution3.html, fix best by June, latest October 2023.

Removing retiring packages from DESCRIPTION, NAMESPACE and spurious roxygen tags, and running CMD check in a scenario using sp evolution status 2 (substitute use of rgdal with sf for projection/transformation/CRS) and absence of retiring packages from the library path gives this log:
