The hereR package provides an interface to the 'HERE' REST APIs:
Geocode and autocomplete addresses or reverse geocode POIs using the 'Geocoder' API;
Route directions, travel distance or time matrices and isolines using the 'Routing' API;
Request real-time traffic flow and incident information from the 'Traffic' API;
Find request public transport connections and nearby stations from the 'Public Transit' API;
Get weather forecasts, reports on current weather conditions, astronomical information and alerts at a specific location from the 'Destination Weather' API.
Locations, routes and isolines are returned as sf objects.
This package requires an API key for a HERE project.
The key is set for the current R session and is used to authenticate in the requests to the APIs.
A free login and project can be created on https://developer.here.com/.
In order to obtain the API key navigate to a project of your choice in the developer portal, select 'REST: Generate APP' and then 'Create API Key'.
To set the API key, please use: set_key("<YOUR API KEY>")
