Get the OSM network functions

Usage

get_travel_network(
  place,
  boundary = NULL,
  boundary_type = "clipsrc",
  extra_tags = et_active(),
  columns_to_remove = c("waterway", "aerialway", "barrier", "manmade"),
  ...
)

Arguments

place: A place name or a bounding box passed to osmextract::oe_get()
boundary: An sf object used to clip the OSM data. Passed to osmextract::oe_get()
boundary_type: The clipping method for the boundary. Default is "clipsrc" which clips geometries to the boundary. See osmextract documentation for other options.
extra_tags: A vector of extra tags to be included in the OSM extract
columns_to_remove: A vector of columns to be removed from the OSM network
...: Additional arguments passed to osmextract::oe_get()

Value

A sf object with the OSM network

Examples

# Basic usage:
# osm = get_travel_network("Edinburgh")

# Using a boundary to clip data:
# library(sf)
# boundary_poly = st_buffer(st_sfc(st_point(c(-3.2, 55.9)), crs = 4326), 0.01)
# osm_clipped = get_travel_network("Edinburgh", boundary = boundary_poly)

# Using different boundary types:
# osm_intersect = get_travel_network("Edinburgh", boundary = boundary_poly, boundary_type = "clipsrc")
