Lightning Fast Serialization of Data Frames

Multithreaded serialization of compressed data frames using the 'fst' format. The 'fst' format allows for full random access of stored data and a wide range of compression settings using the LZ4 and ZSTD compressors.

Database Interface and 'MySQL' Driver for R

Legacy 'DBI' interface to 'MySQL' / 'MariaDB' based on old code ported from S-PLUS. A modern 'MySQL' client written in 'C++' is available from the 'RMariaDB' package.

Tidy Verbs for Fast Data Manipulation

A toolkit of tidy data manipulation verbs with 'data.table' as the backend. Combining the merits of syntax elegance from 'dplyr' and computing performance from 'data.table', 'tidyfst' intends to provide users with state-of-the-art data manipulation tools with least pain. This package is an extension of 'data.table'. While enjoying a tidy syntax, it also wraps combinations of efficient functions to facilitate frequently-used data operations.

Spatial Data Framework for ggplot2

Spatial data plus the power of the ggplot2 framework means easier mapping when input data are already in the form of spatial objects.

Simple Tools for Examining and Cleaning Dirty Data

The main janitor functions can: perfectly format data.frame column names; provide quick counts of variable combinations (i.e., frequency tables and crosstabs); and explore duplicate records. Other janitor functions nicely format the tabulation results. These tabulate-and-report functions approximate popular features of SPSS and Microsoft Excel. This package follows the principles of the "tidyverse" and works well with the pipe function %>%. janitor was built with beginning-to-intermediate R users in mind and is optimized for user-friendliness.

Parsing, Applying, and Manipulating Data Cleaning Rules

Please note: active development has moved to packages 'validate' and 'errorlocate'. Facilitates reading and manipulating (multivariate) data restrictions (edit rules) on numerical and categorical data. Rules can be defined with common R syntax and parsed to an internal (matrix-like format). Rules can be manipulated with variable elimination and value substitution methods, allowing for feasibility checks and more. Data can be tested against the rules and erroneous fields can be found based on Fellegi and Holt's generalized principle. Rules dependencies can be visualized with using the 'igraph' package.

Spectral Transmittance and Spectral Reflectance Data

Spectral 'transmittance' data for frequently used filters and similar materials. Plastic sheets and films; photography filters; theatrical gels; machine-vision filters; various types of window glass; optical glass and some laboratory plastics and glassware. Spectral reflectance data for frequently encountered materials. Part of the 'r4photobiology' suite, Aphalo P. J. (2015) .

Various R Programming Tools for Data Manipulation

Various R programming tools for data manipulation, including medical unit conversions, combining objects, character vector operations, factor manipulation, obtaining information about R objects, generating fixed-width format files, extracting components of date & time objects, operations on columns of data frames, matrix operations, operations on vectors, operations on data frames, value of last evaluated expression, and a resample() wrapper for sample() that ensures consistent behavior for both scalar and vector arguments.

Data Analysis Using Regression and Multilevel/Hierarchical Models

Convert Data from and to 'GeoJSON' or 'TopoJSON'

Convert data to 'GeoJSON' or 'TopoJSON' from various R classes, including vectors, lists, data frames, shape files, and spatial classes. 'geojsonio' does not aim to replace packages like 'sp', 'rgdal', 'rgeos', but rather aims to be a high level client to simplify conversions of data from and to 'GeoJSON' and 'TopoJSON'.
