⚠️There's a newer version (0.3.0) of this package.Take me there.

imgw

The goal of imgw is to automatize downloading Polish meteorological and hydrological data from the IMGW-PIB.

Installation

You can install the development version of imgw from GitHub with:

library(remotes)
install_github("bczernecki/imgw")

Overview

Meteorological data

  • meteo() - Downloading hourly, daily, and monthly meteorological data from the SYNOP/CLIMATE/PRECIP stations available in the danepubliczne.imgw.pl collection. It is a wrapper for meteo_monthly(), meteo_daily(), and meteo_hourly().

  • meteo_monthly() - Downloading monthly meteorological data from SYNOP/CLIMATE/PRECIP stations made available in the danepubliczne.imgw.pl database

  • meteo_daily() - Downloading daily meteorological data from SYNOP/CLIMATE/PRECIP stations made available in the danepubliczne.imgw.pl database

  • meteo_hourly() - Downloading hourly meteorological data from SYNOP/CLIMATE/PRECIP stations made available in the danepubliczne.imgw.pl database

  • meteo_metadata() - Downloading the description (metadata) of the meteorological data provided in the danepubliczne.imgw.pl database

  • meteo_sounding() - Downloading the mea (i.e., measurements of the vertical profile of atmosphere) sounding data

  • meteo_shortening() - Shortening column names of meteorological parameters to improve the readability of downloaded dataset and removing duplicated column names

Hydrological data

  • hydro() - Downloading hourly, daily, and monthly hydrological data from the SYNOP / CLIMATE / PRECIP stations available in the danepubliczne.imgw.pl collection. It is a wrapper for hydro_annual(), hydro_monthly(), and hydro_daily().

  • hydro_annual() - Downloading semiannual and annual hydrological data from the danepubliczne.imgw.pl database

  • hydro_monthly() - Downloading monthly hydrological data from the danepubliczne.imgw.pl database

  • hydro_daily() - Downloading daily hydrological data from the danepubliczne.imgw.pl database

  • hydro_metadata() - Downloading the description (metadata) of the hydrological data provided in the danepubliczne.imgw.pl database

  • hydro_shortening() - Shortening column names of hydrological parameters to improve the readability of downloaded dataset and removing duplicated column names
