Construct the PLACE_STRUCTURE tibble

This function constructs a tibble representation of the PLACE_STRUCTURE from the GEDCOM 5.5.5 specification.

PLACE_STRUCTURE(
  place_name,
  place_phonetic = character(),
  phonetisation_method = character(),
  place_romanised = character(),
  romanisation_method = character(),
  place_latitude = character(),
  place_longitude = character(),
  notes = list()
)

Arguments

place_name

The jurisdictional name of the place where the event took place. Jurisdictions are separated by commas. No part of the place name may be replaced by an abbreviation. Place names are not terminated by a full stop or anything else.

place_phonetic

A character vector of phonetic variations of the place name.

phonetisation_method

Indicates the method used in transforming the text to the phonetic variation.

place_romanised

A character vector of romanised variations of the place name.

romanisation_method

Indicates the method used in transforming the text to a romanised variation.

place_latitude

The value specifying the latitudinal coordinate of the place name. The latitude coordinate is the direction North or South from the equator in degrees and fraction of degrees carried out to give the desired accuracy. For example: 18 degrees, 9 minutes, and 3.4 seconds North would be formatted as N18.150944.

place_longitude

The value specifying the longitudinal coordinate of the place name. The longitude coordinate is Degrees and fraction of degrees east or west of the zero or base meridian coordinate. For example: 168 degrees, 9 minutes, and 3.4 seconds East would be formatted as E168.150944.

notes

A list of NOTE_STRUCTURE() objects.

Value

A tidy tibble containing the PLACE_STRUCTURE part of a GEDCOM file.
