Description: Provides a unified interface to download, harmonise and extract a
    wide range of environmental and socio-economic variables from established
    open data web services (such as 'WorldClim' <https://www.worldclim.org/>,
    'CHELSA' <https://chelsa-climate.org/> and 'Bio-ORACLE'
    <https://www.bio-oracle.org/>, among others) for use in macroecology and
    biogeography. The package handles
    spatial subsetting to a study area, reprojection to a common coordinate
    reference system, and extraction of values at sampling points, so that
    predictors from heterogeneous sources can be assembled within a single
    reproducible workflow. Helper functions for collinearity checking and
    variable exploration are also included.
