read spatial metadata — st_read

At this time, reads a subset of spatial metadata. This is similar to what is reported by ogrinfo -json

Usage

st_read_meta(
  path,
  layer = 1L,
  tblname = tbl_name(path),
  conn = cached_connection(),
  ...
)

path: URL or path to spatial data file
layer: layer number to read metadata for, defaults to first layer.
tblname: metadata will be stored as a view with this name, by default this is based on the name of the file.
conn: A connection to a database.
...: optional additional arguments passed to duckdb_s3_config(). Note these apply after those set by the URI notation and thus may be used to override or provide settings not supported in that format.

A lazy dplyr::tbl object containing core spatial metadata such as projection information.
