ValparaisoPPgis

<p>Spatial location of the 34 rain gauges with daily precipitation for the Valparaiso region (dataset <var>'ValparaisoPPts'</var>), Chile, with more than 70% of days with information (without missing values)</p>

datasets

S3 implementation of the Random Forest MErging Procedure (RF-MEP), which combines two or more satellite-based datasets (e.g., precipitation products, topography) with ground observations to produce a new dataset with improved spatio-temporal distribution of the target field. In particular, this package was developed to merge different Satellite-based Rainfall Estimates (SREs) with measurements from rain gauges, in order to obtain a new precipitation dataset where the time series in the rain gauges are used to correct different types of errors present in the SREs. However, this package might be used to merge other hydrological/environmental satellite fields with point observations. For details, see Baez-Villanueva et al. (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.rse.2019.111606>. Bugs / comments / questions / collaboration of any kind are very welcomed.

ValparaisoPPgis function

<p>A data.frame with seven fields: 
*) 'ID             : identifier of each gauging station. 
*) 'STATION_NAME'  : name of the gauging station. 
*) 'lon'           : easting coordinate of the gauging station, EPSG:4326. 
*) 'lat'           : northing coordinate of the gauging station, EPSG:4326.  
*) 'ELEVATION'     : elevation of the gauging station, [m a.s.l.]. 
*) 'BASIN_ID'      : identifier of the subbasin in which the gauging station s located. 
*) 'BASIN_NAME'    : name of the subbasin in which the gauging station s located.</p>
