Description

Function to batch download gridded 'Daymet' data tiles

Usage

download_daymet_tiles(location = c(18.9103, -114.6109), tiles,
  start = 1980, end = 1980, path = tempdir(), param = "ALL",
  silent = FALSE, force = FALSE)

Arguments

location

location of a point c(lat, lon) or a bounding box defined by a top left and bottom-right coordinates c(lat, lon, lat, lon)

tiles

which tiles to download, overrides geographic constraints

start

start of the range of years over which to download data

end

end of the range of years over which to download data

path

where should the downloaded tiles be stored (default = tempdir())

force

TRUE or FALSE (default), override the conservative end year setting

Value
