## Introduction

The geospatialsuite package provides comprehensive workflow functions that integrate multiple analysis types into complete, automated pipelines. This vignette demonstrates how to build and execute advanced workflows for real-world geospatial analysis scenarios.

## Learning Objectives

By the end of this vignette, you will be able to:

- Execute complete analysis pipelines with minimal code
- Build custom workflows for specific applications
- Integrate multiple data sources automatically
- Handle complex multi-step analysis scenarios
- Optimize workflows for performance and reliability
- Generate comprehensive reports and outputs

## Prerequisites

### 2. Reproducible Research Framework

```{r eval=FALSE}
# Framework for reproducible geospatial research

  # Create project structure
  project_dirs <- c(
    file.path(project_name, "data", "raw"),
    file.path(project_name, "data", "processed"),
    file.path(project_name, "scripts"),
    file.path(project_name, "results", "figures"),
    file.path(project_name, "results", "tables"),
    file.path(project_name, "documentation")
  )
  
  for (dir in project_dirs) {
    if (!dir.exists(dir)) dir.create(dir, recursive = TRUE)
  }
  
  # Create analysis log
  analysis_log <- list(
    project_name = project_name,
    creation_date = Sys.time(),
    geospatialsuite_version = "0.1.0",
    analysis_config = analysis_config,
    r_session_info = sessionInfo()

  # Save analysis configuration
  saveRDS(analysis_log, file.path(project_name, "analysis_log.rds"))
  
  cat("Reproducible workflow structure created for:", project_name, "\n")
  cat("Project directories:", length(project_dirs), "created\n")
  cat("Analysis log saved\n")
  
  return(project_dirs)
}

# Example usage
workflow_config <- list(

  study_region = "Ohio Agricultural Region",
  temporal_extent = "2020-2024",
  spatial_resolution = "30m",
