@temospena

yes, we should move to terra.

raster is an R package for spatial data analysis. The package is not futher developed. It has been replaced by "terra": CRAN, github.

Fully agree with this, for v. 1.1 maybe.

migrate dem_lisbon function from zzz.R to data.R #60

Fully agree with this, for v. 1.1 maybe.

Should we make a new release 1.1 and resubmit to CRAN?

I closed but forgot about this:

Sure. I would say we can completely remove {raster}, don't bother with deprecating functions because the package has few users and it's already gone from CRAN, and then go for v.2.0.0 indicating breaking changes using SemVer conventions.
