readwfs 0.1.0

Initial development version.

  • wfs_read() reads vector features from WFS, OAPIF, and ArcGIS REST endpoints into tibbles with wk::wkb geometry columns.
  • wfs_layers() and wfs_find_layers() for service discovery and layer name search.
  • wfs_layer_info() returns geometry type, feature count, and extent from service metadata (fast, no feature download).
  • wfs_fields() returns the attribute schema for a layer.
  • wfs_services() provides a catalogue of known public endpoints.
  • Auto-detection of service type (WFS, OAPIF, ESRIJSON) from URL patterns.
  • Safe default max_features = 10000 with informative message when more features are available.
  • WFS paging enabled by default for ~6x speedup on large fetches.
  • Uses TRUST_CAPABILITIES_BOUNDS for fast extent queries.
  • Example URLs and bounding boxes for Tasmania LIST and Esri SampleWorldCities via wfs_example_url() and wfs_example_bbox().
