Process a FeatureCollection PBF | API Reference | ArcGIS R-Bridge

Process a pbf from a raw vector or a list of raw vectors.

Usage

process_pbf(proto)

Arguments

proto: either a raw vector or a list of raw vectors containing a FeatureCollection pbf

Value

For count results, a scalar integer.
For object ID results a data.frame with one column.
For pbfs that contain geometries, a list of 3 elements:
- attributes is a data.frame of the fields of the FeatureCollection
- geometry is an sfc object without a computed bounding box or coordinate reference system set
- sr is a named list of the spatial reference of the feature collection

Important: Use post_process_pbf() to convert to an sf object with a computed bounding box and CRS.

Details

There are three types of PBF FeatureCollection responses that may be returned.

Feature Result

In the case the PBF is a FeatureResult and use_sf = FALSE, a data.frame is returned with the spatial reference stored in the crs attribute. Otherwise an sf object is returned.

Count Result

The PBF can also return a count result, for example if the query parameter returnCountOnly is set to true. In this case, a scalar integer vector is returned.

Object ID Result

In the case that the query parameter returnIdsOnly is true, a data.frame is returned containing the object IDs and the column name set to the object ID field name in the feature service.

Examples

count_fp <- system.file("count.pbf", package = "arcpbf")
oid_fp <- system.file("ids.pbf", package = "arcpbf")
tbl_fp <- system.file("small-table.pbf", package = "arcpbf")
fc_fp <- system.file("small-points.pbf", package = "arcpbf")
