The idea of ibge is to download and make available (in a tidy format)
the data from the IBGE Cidades project.
There is a dataset of municipio codes, names and UFs included.
library(ibge)
data("ibge_codes")
head(ibge_codes)
#> # A tibble: 6 x 4
#> codes municipio uf municipio_ascii
#> <int> <chr> <chr> <chr>
#> 1 1100015 Alta Floresta DOeste RO Alta Floresta DOeste
#> 2 1100023 Ariquemes RO Ariquemes
#> 3 1100031 Cabixi RO Cabixi
#> 4 1100049 Cacoal RO Cacoal
#> 5 1100056 Cerejeiras RO Cerejeiras
#> 6 1100064 Colorado do Oeste RO Colorado do OesteThe function historic() returns a one-line dataframe of information on
the municipality selected. Since this may be of limited use, it also
prints out a HTML page of the same information (in an interactive
session only). If using RStudio, this will appear in the Viewer pane.
This function returns data in the original Portuguese.
For example, let’s learn a little about Nova Olinda do Norte, in
Amazonas state (I hope you’ve brushed up on your Brazilian Portuguese).
library(dplyr)
filter(ibge_codes, municipio == "Nova Olinda do Norte") %>%
pull(codes) %>%
