Lookup boundaries associated with taxing entities

Source: R/lookup.R
lookup_geom.Rd

The functions in this group take a tax year and identifier as input and return a data.table as an output. The returned data contains a geometry column representing the spatial boundary of the taxing entity.

Usage

lookup_pin10_geometry(year, pin10, conn = ptaxsim_db_conn)

Arguments

year

A numeric vector of tax years.

pin10

A character vector of 10-digit PINs.

conn

A connection object pointing to a local copy of the PTAXSIM database.

Value

A data.table containing the specified geometry. NOTE: The geometry is returned as a character vector in the Well-Known Text (WKT) format. You must convert the character vector before using sf or similar packages to perform spatial manipulation.

Functions

  • lookup_pin10_geometry(): Lookup the parcel boundary for a specific PIN and year. Returns a data.table with the PIN's geometry (as WKT) as well as the longitude and latitude of the PIN's centroid. NOTE: Not all PINs in the tax bill database have corresponding geometries.
