Full Changelog: v1.1.0...v1.2.0

v1.1.0

In v1.1 we have removed the package dependencies rgeos and rgdal as these are no longer available on CRAN. The package should install fine without these dependencies, but some spatial functions may not work properly. If required, one can download the archived packages, unzip them, and then placed them in the R library location.

To install, please see our instructions on our getting started page.
