Loads a designated pretrained model available in the `text2map.pretrained` package, hosted on GitLab. Some models need to be downloaded just once per machine. Downloading may take a while. If no location is specified (recommended), the file will be saved in the packages data folder allowing the model to be loaded with `data()`. If a location other than the packages data folder is specified, the model can be loaded with `load()`.

  force = FALSE,
  quiet = FALSE
)

Arguments

model

Character string indicating model name to be downloaded

location

Default is `NULL` (and recommended), and will save in the R package data folder, If desired, specify saving the cmodel elsewhere Note: if saved elsewhere, model must be loaded with `load()`, not `data()`

force

Default `FALSE`. If model already exists locally, download will be stopped unless `TRUE`.

quiet

Logical (default `FALSE`) to mute messages
