CatastRoNav vs tern.mmrm
A side-by-side editorial comparison of CatastRoNav and tern.mmrm — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
CatastRoNav vs tern.mmrm: at a glance
What is CatastRoNav?
Navarre's cadastre client finally reaches feature parity with its bigger Spanish sibling.
CatastRoNav wraps the Cadastre of Navarre, a Spanish region that publishes its own cadastral services separately from the national system. Until 1.0.0 the package could only fetch cadastral parcels via ATOM; it now retrieves buildings and addresses through ATOM as well and adds WMS INSPIRE layer access through catrnav_wms_get_layer(). The same release relicenses to GPL-2, moves requests to httr2 with retries and switches messaging to cli.
What is tern.mmrm?
An MMRM tabulation package that has published nothing since its 2024 CRAN releases.
tern.mmrm wraps mixed models for repeated measures into the tern tabulation and plotting layer used by teal clinical modules. The visible history ends with three CRAN releases in mid-to-late 2024; before that the feed carries only automated version bumps from 2022, three of which have just been backfilled into the record. The most recent substantive change adds axis limit arguments to the LS-means plot.

Navarre's cadastre client finally reaches feature parity with its bigger Spanish sibling.
◆ Current state
CatastRoNav wraps the Cadastre of Navarre, a Spanish region that publishes its own cadastral services separately from the national system. Until 1.0.0 the package could only fetch cadastral parcels via ATOM; it now retrieves buildings and addresses through ATOM as well and adds WMS INSPIRE layer access through catrnav_wms_get_layer(). The same release relicenses to GPL-2, moves requests to httr2 with retries and switches messaging to cli.
◆ Where it's heading
The package is being pulled into line with CatastRo, the maintainer's national-cadastre client: same transport, same UTF-8 normalization strategy, same option names falling back to the CatastRo equivalents. Coverage has been gated by what the Navarre Cadastre actually publishes — 0.1.0 said outright that further ATOM capabilities would arrive when the regional service made them available, and 1.0.0 is that promise landing.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next releases to track new Navarre service endpoints as they are published, and to inherit whatever maintenance pattern CatastRo adopts next.
tern.mmrm
0.0ANALYTICS
An MMRM tabulation package that has published nothing since its 2024 CRAN releases.
◆ Current state
tern.mmrm wraps mixed models for repeated measures into the tern tabulation and plotting layer used by teal clinical modules. The visible history ends with three CRAN releases in mid-to-late 2024; before that the feed carries only automated version bumps from 2022, three of which have just been backfilled into the record. The most recent substantive change adds axis limit arguments to the LS-means plot.
◆ Where it's heading
Content per release is thin and largely organisational: a maintainer change, replacing scda with random.cdisc.data in vignettes, and adapting to new {mmrm} versions. The package appears to be in maintenance, tracking its upstream dependency rather than developing independently. The 2022 entries now visible are release-automation commits, not releases in any meaningful sense.
◆ Prediction
Nothing here signals new functionality; the realistic next event is another compatibility release when {mmrm} or {rtables} changes underneath it.
