openrouteservice R client

openrouteservice R package provides easy access to the openrouteservice (ORS) API from R. It allows you to painlessly consume the following services:

Disclaimer

By using this package, you agree to the ORS terms and conditions.

Installation

The latest release version can be readily obtained from CRAN via a call to

install.packages("openrouteservice")

For running the current development version from GitHub it is recommended to use pak, as it handles the installation of all the necessary packages and their system dependencies automatically.

# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("GIScience/openrouteservice-r")

Get started

See the package vignette for an overview of the offered functionality.

Local ORS instance

The default is to fire any requests against the free public services at <api.openrouteservice.org>. In order to query a different openrouteservice instance, say a local one, set

options(openrouteservice.url = "http://localhost:8082/ors")

If necessary, endpoint configuration can be further customized through openrouteservice.paths which specifies a named list of paths. The defaults are equivalent of having

options(openrouteservice.paths = list(directions = "v2/directions",
                                      isochrones = "v2/isochrones",
                                      matrix = "v2/matrix",
                                      geocode = "geocode",
                                      pois = "pois",
                                      elevation = "elevation",
                                      optimization = "optimization",
                                      snap = "v2/snap",
                                      export = "v2/export"))
