add_country_names

Takes a data table with lon/lat coordinates and adds a column
'country' to it, containing the name of the country, the coordinate belongs to.

Provides tools for processing and evaluating seasonal weather forecasts,
with an emphasis on tercile forecasts. We follow the World Meteorological Organization's
"Guidance on Verification of Operational Seasonal Climate Forecasts",
S.J.Mason (2018, ISBN: 978-92-63-11220-0, URL: <https://library.wmo.int/idurl/4/56227>).
The development was supported by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation
programme under grant agreement no. 869730 (CONFER).
A comprehensive online tutorial is available at <http://files.nr.no/samba/CONFER/SeaVal/>.
