Usage

latlon_from_sic(sic, id_only = FALSE)

Arguments

sic

a vector of SIC codes, or a data.table with column named code, as with output of sic_from_any()

id_only

logical optional, set TRUE to get only the vector of REGISTRY_ID values back instead of a data.frame with lat,lon,SIC columns too.

Value

A data.table (not just data.frame) with columns called lat, lon, REGISTRY_ID, SIC (unless the id_only parameter is set to TRUE)

Details

The EPA also provides a FRS Facility Industrial Classification Search tool where you can find facilities based on NAICS or SIC.

NOTE: many FRS sites lack SIC code!

Also, this function does not find the sites identified by FRS data as being in a child SIC (subcategory of your exact query)!

Relies on frs_by_sic (a data.table)

See info about SIC industry codes at https://www.naics.com/search
