locatr: Audit-Ready Geocoding and Local Geography for Messy Location
Data
Cleans, geocodes, validates, reviews, and exports messy
location address data supplied by the user. The package sits on top of
'tidygeocoder': it calls geocoding services, rejects implausible
coordinates with configurable region guards, applies fallback
name/address matching, joins points to optional local geography with
'sf', and records an audit trail showing how each coordinate was
produced. Outputs are designed for manual review, dashboards, and
reusable location crosswalks.
