read_weighting_area

Download spatial data of Census Weighting Areas (area de ponderacao) of the Brazilian Population Census


Description

Only 2010 data is currently available.

Usage

read_weighting_area(
  code_weighting = "all",
  year = 2010,
  simplified = TRUE,
  showProgress = TRUE
)

Arguments

code_weighting

The 7-digit code of a Municipality. If the two-digit code or a two-letter uppercase abbreviation of a state is passed, (e.g. 33 or "RJ") the function will load all weighting areas of that state. If code_weighting="all", all weighting areas of the country are loaded.

year

Year of the data. Defaults to 2010

simplified

Logic FALSE or TRUE, indicating whether the function returns the data set with 'original' resolution or a data set with 'simplified' borders. Defaults to TRUE. For spatial analysis and statistics users should set simplified = FALSE. Borders have been simplified by removing vertices of borders using st_simplify{sf} preserving topology with a dTolerance of 100.

showProgress

Logical. Defaults to TRUE display progress bar

Value

An "sf" "data.frame" object
