CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:&nbsp\;Philip Dixon\, University Professor\, Department
  of Statistics\, Iowa State University\n\nTitle: Making the transition fro
 m sp to sf for spatial data management and analysis\n\nAbstract: Most spat
 ial analysis packages are based on the sp or raster packages for spatial d
 ata management.&nbsp\; Sp is almost 20 years old and showing its age.&nbsp
 \; It will be deprecated and perhaps removed from CRAN at the end of 2023.
 &nbsp\; It’s replacement is the sf package.&nbsp\; raster is being repla
 ced by the terra package.&nbsp\; I will describe what you need to do to st
 art making the transition from sp to sf.&nbsp\; I will provide an example 
 to play with and links to various resources on sf and the transition to sf
