From the Open Bangsamoro website
The OpenBangsamoro initiative supports the use of open statistical, geospatial, and administrative data for transparent, accountable, and participatory decision-making as the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) transforms into the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao.
The openbangsamoro R package supports this effort by providing an application programming interface to the Open Bangsamoro shared Google Drive. Consistent with the principles of Open Bangsamoro, the openbangsamoro R package is built and distributed open source on a platform that allows and encourages community contribution using a programming language that is also open and freely available to use.
We believe that through this added layer of interface to the Open Bangsamoro datasets, a cadre of users and developers - including those from Bangsamoro itself - can support the process of mapmaking, placemaking, and decision-making that the Open Bangsamoro effort has initiated and continue to encourage.
What does openbangsamoro do?
Please note that openbangsamoro is still highly experimental and is undergoing a lot of development. Hence, any functionalities described below and in the rest of the package documentation have a high likelihood of changing interface or approach as we aim for a stable working version.
Currently, the package provides functions for retrieving Google Drive specific drive information for the Open Bangsamoro Google Drive and its sub-directories.
