Download an RGB raster layer from IGN Web Map Tile Services (WMTS). WMTS focuses on performance and can only query pre-calculated tiles.

Usage

get_wmts(x,
         apikey = "ortho",
         layer = "ORTHOIMAGERY.ORTHOPHOTOS",
         zoom = 10L,
         crs = 2154,
         filename = tempfile(fileext = ".tif"),
         overwrite = FALSE,
         interactive = FALSE)

Arguments

apikey

character; API key from get_apikeys() or directly from IGN website.

layer

character; layer name from get_layers_metadata(apikey, "wms") or directly from IGN website.

zoom

overwrite

If TRUE, output raster is overwrite.
