wk: Lightweight Well-Known Geometry Parsing
Dewey Dunnington, Edzer J Pebesma · 2020
Provides a minimal R and C++ API for parsing well-known binary and well-known text representation of geometries to and from R-native formats. Well-known binary is compact and fast to parse; well-known text is human-readable and is useful for writing tests. These formats are useful in R only if the information they contain can be accessed in R, for which high-performance functions are provided here.
