Snow.polygons missing from HistData
jmcastagnetto opened this issue · comments
First of all, thanks for your valuable resource, it makes it easy to point to students to datasets they can use to learn and experiment.
I was looking at the Snow.*
datasets from HistData, and noticed that the Snow.polygons
data is missing from the list.
Glad you like it. Rdatasets only includes standard rectangular data frames in CSV format.
Is that a weird map object?
Actually it is a list of 13 dataframes, so it might be considered as a group of CSV files all with x
and y
columns:
> library(HistData)
> str(Snow.polygons)

If included in your list, that could be collapsed using:

> library(HistData)
> snow_polygons <- bind_rows(Snow.polygons, .id = "polygon")
> head(snow_polygons, 10)

Ah thanks for the info. That makes sense.
The scraping script does not support non-standard structures like this. I may accept a Pull Request if someone wants to improve the code, but I am very unlikely to implement this myself.
Sorry.
