How to download many files at once from a website using R
The crul package is also worth mentioning in this context (Asynchronous HTTP requests).

Is there a recommended library for asynchronous HTTP servers in R?
Are there R packages which do something like this? I've come across crul: https://github.com/ropensci/crul

[Q] Book suggestion for Spatial Statistics / Geostatistics
Before learning about geostatistics, do you feel comfortable working with and exploring geospatial data? If not, I'd highly recommend getting comfortable with the sf package in R. It's an implementation of the OpenGIS standard in R tidyverse. The OpenGIS standard defines specific data types and functions for geospatial data, which means that you can read e.g. PostGIS documentation and use the same functions in R.

[Q] Recommendations for Spatial Analysis Books with R
A lot of the books are out if date because geospatial has been rewritten from the ground up to be dramatically improved. I would focus on the sf package: https://r-spatial.github.io/sf/. I would also find a PostGIS book which sf shares many functions and learn to the the database when appropriate.

Overlay Grid on Shapefile
Are you using the sf package? I envision running a loop that creates a vector feature for each cell of the raster grid, intersects that feature with the underlying shapefile, multiplies the area of each intersected portion by its value, and assigns the raster the mean of those values. Kind of a lot to set up, but I'm not a master at this so maybe someone else knows a more straightforward method

is that possible to find check, a point in or out in a geojson on R
I found this: https://github.com/r-spatial/sf/issues/1595

Converting distance/azimuth to a real position
Now that I explained the concept, I will show some R code using the sf library to achieve this. sf stands for simple features and it's a very nice library for working with geospatial data.
What are some alternatives?
