istacr is a R package for obtaining open data from Instituto Canario de Estadística (ISTAC). It provides a wrapper to the open API catalog.
The package is divided into several modules depending on the resource you want to retrieve:
- Indicators: Systems, instances, granularities and subjects of indicators.
- Statistical resources: Datasets and queries of cubes.
- Structural resources: Categories, schemes, classifications, families and concepts for normalize statistical resources.
The package allows you to consult data from any eDatos API catalog instance. To change default instance (https://datos.canarias.es/api/estadisticas/), use the change_api_url method.
