Many of the functions in this package have been superseded by new versions from the {sfext}, {getdata}, and {maplayer} packages. Even though there are few (if any) users for this package other than me, I'd like to follow the good practice of flagging these functions as deprecated before removing them from the package entirely as part of the process of slimming {mapbaltimore} down to just the data and data access functions – not any of the general utility functions.
