title: 'tampaBayOpenData: Discover and Retrieve Tampa Bay Public Open Data'
version: 0.1.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.tampaBayOpenData
abstract: Provides tools for discovering and retrieving public 'ArcGIS' datasets across
the Tampa Bay region. Search a selected catalog of checked datasets or live publisher
portals, and load records into 'R'. The six configured publishers are the City of
Tampa, City of St. Petersburg, City of Clearwater, Hillsborough County, Pinellas
County, and Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council. Discover layers in these and other
public 'ArcGIS' portals and retrieve them by their service URLs. A publisher registry
configures discovery, while a separate dataset registry identifies layers checked
by package maintainers. Filter catalogs by source, geometry, topic, category, and
modification date. Retrieve queryable layers with validated pagination, bounded
previews, server-side filtering, typed tabular results, optional spatial objects,
and source provenance. Save large downloads as local chunks that can be validated
and resumed. Public source pages include the City of Tampa GeoHub ,
St. Petersburg 'ArcGIS' portal , Clearwater
'ArcGIS' portal , Hillsborough
County GeoHub , Pinellas
County Enterprise GIS , and Tampa
Bay Regional Planning Council GeoHub .
