rgdal

We have .R/Makevars as follows,

CC=gcc
CXX=g++ -std=gnu++11
PKG_CXXFLAGS= -std=c++11
CFLAGS = -std=c99 -I/usr/include -g -O2 -Wall -pedantic -mtune=native -Wno-ignored-attributes -Wno-deprecated-declarations -Wno-parentheses -Wimplicit-function-declaration
CXXFLAGS = -std=c++11
 

the proceed with

module load gcc/5
module load geos-3.6.2-gcc-5.4.0-vejexvy
module load gdal-2.3.1-gcc-5.4.0-m7j7nw6
module load proj-5.0.1-gcc-5.4.0-cpqxtzr
Rscript -e "install.packages('sf')"
# R 3.6.3 also requires
module load json-c-0.13.1-gcc-5.4.0-ffamohj
module load libgeotiff-1.4.2-gcc-5.4.0-2emzhxh
module load libpng-1.6.29-gcc-5.4.0-3qwhidp
module load cfitsio-3.450-gcc-5.4.0-colpo6h
module load zlib/1.2.11
module load mpich-3.2-gcc-5.4.0-idlluti
Rscript -e "install.packages('rgdal')"
 

Under R 3.6.3, there are complaints about -std=c++11 when installing sf but can be dealt with it first (as described in its own section).

Finally, gdal could also be installed with proj 6 available,

./configure --with-proj=$HPC_WORK --without-sqlite3 --prefix=$HPC_WORK
 

Then proj_api.h should have a statement

#define ACCEPT_USE_OF_DEPRECATED_PROJ_API_H 1

We have seen errors
