add_nuts_level: Add the statistical aggregation level to data frame

Description

Eurostat regional statistics contain country, and various regional level information. In many cases, for example, when mapping, it is useful to filter out national level data from NUTS2 level regional data, for example.

This function will be deprecated. Use the more comprehensive [regions::validate_nuts_regions()] instead.

Arguments

dat

geo_labels

A geographical label, defaults to geo.

Value

a new numeric variable nuts_level with the numeric value of NUTS level 0 (country), 1 (greater region), 2 (region), 3 (small region).
