Turn Place Names into Map Data

v0.2.2 · Mar 19, 2026 · MIT + file LICENSE

Description

A tool for easily matching spatial data when you have a list of place/region names. You might have a data frame that came from a spreadsheet tracking some data by suburb or state. This package can convert it into a spatial data frame ready for plotting. The actual map data is provided by other packages (or your own code).
