Interface to the INSPIRE Services of the Cadastre of Navarre

Navarre's cadastre client finally reaches feature parity with its bigger Spanish sibling.

spatial-dataopen-government-dataspainwmsinspire
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.

    Buildings, addresses and WMS layers arrive in 1.0.0

    ⚡ SPARK

    Closes the capability gap that defined this package: parcels-only becomes parcels, buildings, addresses and WMS raster layers. It also imports CatastRo's modernization wholesale — httr2 with retries, cli messaging, shared UTF-8 normalization and option fallbacks to the CatastRo settings.

    ATOM parcel retrieval and a caching system

    Adds catrnav_atom_get_parcels() plus a cache directory system, and a count parameter to cap returned features. The release notes flag that further ATOM capabilities were waiting on the Navarre Cadastre to publish them — the constraint that 1.0.0 eventually lifted.

    Geometry validity fix for returned sf objects

    Runs sf::st_make_valid() on returned objects so downstream spatial operations stop failing on malformed geometry, alongside a CI bump.

    First release opens the Navarre cadastre to R

    The initial CRAN release, with a DOI and little else described. It establishes the package's reason to exist — Navarre publishes cadastral data outside the national service — but the capability arc only becomes legible from 0.1.0 onward.
