Description:
Provides database-backed spatial geometry classes and methods for working with vector spatial data in 'DuckDB'. The package supports loading, converting, querying, joining, and measuring spatial geometries through familiar 'sf'-style interfaces while keeping geometry columns lazy inside the database. It integrates with 'dbProject' to preserve database paths, live connections, and spatial table metadata across interactive sessions. The package follows the Simple Features framework described by Pebesma (2018) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2018-009> and uses DuckDB's spatial extension <https://duckdb.org/docs/stable/core_extensions/spatial/overview.html>.
