Access and Plot CanVec and CanVec+ Data for Rapid Basemap
Creation in Canada
Provides an interface to the National Topographic System (NTS), which is
the way in which a number of freely available Canadian datasets
are organized. CanVec and CanVec+ datasets, which include all data used
to create Canadian topographic maps, are two such datasets that are useful
in creating vector-based maps for locations across Canada. This packages searches
CanVec data by location, plots it using pretty defaults, and exports it to
human-readable shapefiles for use in another GIS.

Calibration and Analysis of Radiocarbon Dates
Enables the calibration and analysis of radiocarbon dates, often but not exclusively for the purposes of archaeological research. It includes functions not only for basic calibration, uncalibration, and plotting of one or more dates, but also a statistical framework for building demographic and related longitudinal inferences from aggregate radiocarbon date lists, including: Monte-Carlo simulation test (Timpson et al 2014 <doi:10.1016/j.jas.2014.08.011>), random mark permutation test (Crema et al 2016 <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0154809>) and spatial permutation tests (Crema, Bevan, and Shennan 2017 <doi:10.1016/j.jas.2017.09.007>).
