norgeo 2.1.4

• Update test file after changes in SSB API (#77)

norgeo 2.1.3

• Update test file after changes in SSB API (#76)

norgeo 2.1.2

• Update test after changes in SSB API (#74)

norgeo 2.1.1

• Update documentation.
• Add startup message with version number.
• Refactor some codes for cleanliness.
• Change title to “Tracking Geo Code Change of Regional Granularity in Norway”.

norgeo 2.1.0

• Clean up enumeration codes before 2002. Some codes that were already recoded could still exist after 2002. Those codes were excluded from the code change before 2002. (#62)
• Retry connection if fail or give feedback if error to connect to the API (#63)
• Area codes for grunnkrets doesn’t always available from API. It makes it difficult to know if the codes have been changed multiple times or not. get_change() will ensure that area codes for grunnkrets will be created if it doesn’t exist from the change table to ensure that area codes for grunnkrets will always exist. Thanks to @jorgenRM to notice this error (#65)

norgeo 2.0.0

• All functions for the downloaded data from SSB are now deactivated. It’s no more relevant after implementing API related functions. (#57)
• Code change for grunnkrets before 2003 is available with GrunnkretsBefore2002. The list is not available via API and received directly from SSB.

norgeo 1.0.0

• cast_geo() now add unknown grunnkrets to respective bydel, kommune and fylke.

• Some geo code don’t have missing codes. Have to add it manually when not available from SSB.

• Fix issues #42.

• Fix issues #41.

• Function cast_code is now internal only.

• All geo codes downloaded via API can be cast for geo granularity with cast_geo

  codes	year	level	grks	fylke	kommune	bydel
  0320333	2021	grks	0333333	03	0320	032141
  0322	2021	kommune	NA	03	0322	NA

• Gives error message if specification in get_correspond() for type and correspond in opposite order.

• Give error message if year specification in from and to in a wrong order.

• Stop if there is no code change for the specified year when running track_change()

• Add enumerator (grunnkrets) for missing with 99999999 when not already available in the dataset downloaded from API. This is needed for merging dataset that has this code to be able to calculate total for the whole dataset.

norgeo 0.9.2

All API functions now use arguments from and to instead of year as in geo_ functions. This is matching the specification from SSB API Klass.

New features are introduced to help working with the downloaded data from API. Now you can use:

• track_change to get all code changes until the date specified year in to argument
• track_split to find geo codes that are split to different geo codes
• track_merge to find geo codes that are merged to a new geo

norgeo 0.9.1

Introduce functions to download data via API with get_ prefix:

• get_code function to download geo levels via API from SSB.
• get_change function to download code changes.
• get_correspond function to get geo codes for corresponding granularity.
• get_set function is now a wrapper function for get_list and get_change

norgeo 0.9.0

• The real first release version

norgeo 1.3.3

Despite it was version 1.3.3 til then, unfortunately norgeo was actually premature since it hasn’t been tested properly, but was released due to the need to use the function. So that was much too early and I have to pull it back and make rebirth of norgeo 0.9 with a bit properly thought function names and structure. But of course there are always errors and things that can be better… Anyway, norgeo 1.3.3 before norgeo 0.9.0 works but too ambitious to call it 1.3.3, but hopefully the second future version of norgeo 1.3.3 will be much better :-)

dev branch

All ongoing new ideas will be implemented here. So contributions and bugs reports are very much welcome.

Track changes

• geo_merge() function provide output for split and merge codes, but it’s only relevant to those that are split or merged in the most recent code list. All that happened prior to this haven’t been handled properly. So may be you can help to solve this?

Change table

Hopefully a better alternative to solve this challenge when SSB doesn’t provide codes that have changed. May be SSB sees the problem and will fix it to help external users.
