• Throws an error ifpreserve_metadata = "gdalraster_sozip" in functiontar_terra_rast() and if GDAL is less than 3.7. Skips testing this feature when GDAL < 3.7 also. This fixes a bug picked up by the CRAN team.
• Tests also don't report progress bars, as mentioned by CRAN team.

• Bugfix by@brownag that fixes use offile.rename() intar_terra_rast(..., preserve_metadata = "zip"), which does not work when the temporary directory is on a different partition. (#121, PR#122).
• Fixed examples fortar_terra_tiles(),tile_grid(),tar_terra_sds(), andtar_terra_sprc() as reported by@amart90 as part ofrOpenSci review
• Added details to the documentation fortar_terra_tiles() (suggested by@amart90 as part ofrOpenSci review)
• Completed ropensci review and transferred ownership to ropensci
• tar_terra_rast() gains adatatype argument andtar_stars() gains atype argument. Both default to the geotargets option"gdal.raster.data.type" (when set).
• Additional arguments... are now passed to the target "write" method:terra::writeRaster() fortar_terra_rast(),terra::writeVector() fortar_terra_vect() andstars::write_stars() fortar_stars() (Thanks to@brownag in#137, resolves#132 and#127)
• Addedtar_terra_vrt() forSpatRaster object targets that reference multiple data sources (e.g. tiles created withtar_terra_tiles()) using a GDAL Virtual Dataset (VRT) XML file (Thanks to@brownag in#138)
• The default driver fortar_terra_vect() has been changed to"GPKG" in order to preserve CRS information (#166).
• Addedpreserve_metadata = "gdalraster_sozip" option to usegdalraster::addFilesInZip() to write multi-file Seek-Optimized ZIP (SOZip) file targets, and/vsizip/ GDAL Virtual File System paths for reading without extraction (#167)

Contributors

• Createdtar_stars() andtar_stars_proxy() that createstars andstars_proxy objects, respectively.
• Createdtar_terra_tiles(), a "target factory" for splitting a raster into multiple tiles with dynamic branching (#69).
• Created two helper functions for use intar_terra_tiles():tile_grid(),tile_n(), andtile_blocksize() (#69,#86,#87,#89).
• Created utility functionset_window() mostly for internal use withintar_terra_tiles().
• Removes theiteration argument from alltar_*() functions.iteration now hard-coded as"list" since it is the only option that works (for now at least).
• Added thedescription argument to alltar_*() functions which is passed totar_target().
• Suppressed the warning "[rast] skipped sub-datasets" fromtar_terra_sprc(), which is misleading in this context (#92,#104).
• Requires GDAL 3.1 or greater to use "ESRI Shapefile" driver intar_terra_vect() (#71,#97)
• geotargets now requirestargets version 1.8.0 or higher
• tar_terra_rast() gains apreserve_metadata option that when set to"zip" reads/writes targets as zip archives that include aux.json "sidecar" files sometimes written byterra (#58)
• terra (>= 1.7.71),withr (>= 3.0.0), andzip are now required dependencies ofgeotargets (moved fromSuggests toImports)

• Createdtar_terra_rast() andtar_terra_vect() for targets that createSpatRaster andSpatVector objects, respectively
• Createdtar_terra_sprc() that creates aSpatRasterCollection object.
• geotargets_options_get() andgeotargets_options_set() can be used to set and get options specific togeotargets.
• geotargets now requirestargets version 1.7.0 or higher
• fixed a bug whereresources supplied totar_terra_*() were being ignored (#66)
