[R] About spDataLarge Package

[Paul Bernal]

Dear friend David,

Hope you are doing great. Thank you for your kind reply. I was able to
successfully install package spDataLarge following Rui's suggested
workaround:

installing package remotes and then using the following command:
remotes::install_github("Nowosad/spDataLarge")

Cheers,
Paul
