bcmaps v0.17.0

• Output of available_layers() has changed: shortcut_function column is now logical, uses better column names, and has a custom print function that gives more information. (#34)
• Add links to combine_nr_rd() function from regional_districts() and municipalities(). This function combines Regional Districts with the Northern Rockies Regional Municipalites to create a full provincial layer of 'Regional-District-like' polygons.
• Added Timber Supply Areas and BC cities shortcut function and to available_layers()
• bec (and other large downloadable layers) show up in the output of available_layers(), bec() works, and get_layer("bec") works so that getting downloadable datasets is indistinguishable from getting local datasets. (#32)
• Some utility functions use sf functions that have been moved to the lwgeom package. They now use the lwgeom function (Fixes CRAN CHECK NOTE; #33).
• Added new layer: bc_cities() which is a point layer of B.C.'s major cities.

bcmaps v0.16.0

• Added two new functions: raster_by_poly to overlay a SpatialPolygonsDataFrmae or sf polygons layer on a raster layer and clip the raster to each polygon, and summarize_raster_list to summarize the results of raster_to_poly

bcmaps 0.15.0

bcmaps 0.15.0

• Added the ability to download Biogeoclimatic Zone map - as it was too big to
  fit in the bcmaps.rdata package, it is hosted as an asset on a GitHub release of bcmaps.rdata,
  and downloaded via the function bec(), which uses the new function get_big_data() (#28).
• Added function bec_colours() (and alias bec_colors()) to generate a vector of colours
  that match the standard colours used to colour Biogeoclimatic Zone maps.
