Please write references in the description of the DESCRIPTION file in
the form
authors (year) doi:...
authors (year, ISBN:...)
or if those are not available: authors (year) https:...
with no space after 'doi:', 'https:' and angle brackets for
auto-linking. (If you want to add a title as well please put it in
quotes: "Title")
For more details:
https://contributor.r-project.org/cran-cookbook/description_issues.html#references
So please add authors and (year) as well.

Please only write package names, software names and API (application
programming interface) names in single quotes in title and description.
e.g: 'doughnuts' --> doughnuts, etc...

Package Information:
Package: zonebuilder
Version: 0.1.0
Title: Create and Explore Geographic Zoning Systems
Author(s): Robin Lovelace [aut, cre]
(https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5679-6536), Martijn Tennekes
[aut]
Maintainer: Robin Lovelace rob00x@gmail.com
Depends: R (>= 3.5.0)
Suggests: knitr, rmarkdown, tmap, tmaptools, dplyr, lwgeom, leaflet,
covr, bookdown
Description: Functions, documentation and example data to help divide
geographic space into discrete polygons (zones). The package
supports new zoning systems that are documented in the
accompanying paper doi:10.5311/JOSIS.2022.24.172. The
functions are motivated by research into the merits of
different zoning systems doi:10.1068/a090169. A flexible
'ClockBoard' zoning system is provided, which breaks-up space
by concentric rings and radial lines emanating from a central
point. By default, the diameter of the rings grow according
the triangular number sequence
doi:10.1080/26375451.2019.1598687 with the first 4
'doughnuts' (or 'annuli') measuring 1, 3, 6, and 10 km wide.
These annuli are subdivided into equal segments (12 by
default), creating the visual impression of a dartboard.
Zones are labelled according to distance to the centre and
angular distance from North, creating a simple geographic
zoning and labelling system useful for visualising geographic
phenomena with a clearly demarcated central location such as
cities.

Imports: sf, RColorBrewer, graphics, grDevices

The maintainer confirms that he or she
has read and agrees to the CRAN policies.

Submitter's comment: Many updates enabling tests to pass on CRAN, after
the package was removed due to failing tests.

I have
fixed broken URLs since last submission.
