Get a correspondence table, either via strayr::read_correspondence_tbl or by creating one with make_correspondence_tbl

Usage

get_correspondence_tbl(
  from_area = NULL,
  from_year = NULL,
  from_geo = NULL,
  to_area = NULL,
  to_year = NULL,
  to_geo = NULL,
  export_dir = tempdir(),
  export_fname = NULL,
  mb_geo = get_mb21_pop()
)

Arguments

from_area

The area you want to correspond FROM (i.e. the areas your data are currently in). For example: 'sa1', 'sa2', 'sa3', 'sa4'.

from_year

The year you want to correspond FROM. For example: 2011, 2016.

from_geo

The FROM polygon geography. Helpful if it is not available using from_year and from_area in get_polygon.

to_area

The area you want to correspond TO (i.e. the areas you want your data to be in).

to_year

The year you want to correspond TO.

to_geo

The TO polygon geography. Helpful if it is not available using to_year and to_area in get_polygon.

export_dir

The directory to store the downloaded data.

export_fname

The file name for the saved file (applicable if from_geo) and to_geo are used instead of areas and years).

mb_geo

mesh blocks data with census population. Defaults to using the 2021 edition mesh blocks and 2021 census data (see get_mb21_pop()).

Value

A tibble.
