My mistake, if you look for country-level boundaries giscoR may be an option. For administrative boundaries inside a country (provinces, states, regions) giscoR only has information for European Union countries and a NUTS level, that does not match completely with the administrative levels of the

Have you looked at package rnaturalearth? There's a web site for the dataset it interfaces: https://www.naturalearthdata.com/ - it looks like there's more information about its origins and processing that went on than behind GADM. On 12/1/20 4:26 PM, Manuel Spínola wrote: Dear list members,
