Description: Motivated by changing administrative boundaries over time, this package can convert European regional data with NUTS codes between versions (2006, 2010, 2013, 2016 and 2021) and levels (NUTS 1, NUTS 2 and NUTS 3). The package uses spatial interpolation based on granular (100mx100m) population and land use data provided by the European Commission's Joint Research Center.

These conversions can be performed in any direction based on spatial interpolation using five different weights (regional area in square kilometers, 2011 and 2018 population size, 2012 and 2018 built-up area). The weights are based on conversion matrices provided by the [Joint Research Center (JRC) of the European Commission (EC)](<https://urban.jrc.ec.europa.eu/nutsconverter/#/>) that are used in their online converter. This R package permits to do the same conversion offline with additional advantages such as conversion within groups, enabling the conversion of datasets with multiple NUTS versions efficiently.
