reshapemeteospain: Reshapes weather data from 'meteospain', 'worldmet' or 'weathercan'

Description

Reshapes weather station data acquired using the 'meteospain', 'worldmet' or 'weathercan' R packages into formats useful for meteoland

Usage

reshapemeteospain(
  weather_data,
  output = "SpatialPointsMeteorology",
  proj4string = NULL,
  complete = TRUE,
  verbose = TRUE
)
reshapeweathercan(
  hourly_data,
  daily_data = NULL,
  output = "SpatialPointsMeteorology",
  proj4string = NULL,
  complete = TRUE,
  verbose = TRUE
)
reshapeworldmet(
  hourly_data,
  output = "SpatialPointsMeteorology",
  proj4string = NULL,
  complete = TRUE,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Value

An object of the class indicated in output.

Arguments

weather_data: Hourly or daily weather data, in form of an sf (spatial) object, obtained using function 'get_meteo_from()' in package 'meteospain'.
output: Kind of output desired. Either 'SpatialPointsTopography', 'SpatialPointsMeteorology' or 'MeteorologyInterpolationData'.
proj4string: A string or CRS to change the coordinate reference system of the output. If NULL the spatial reference will be geographic coordinates (i.e. CRS("+proj=longlat")). When reshaping to MeteorologyInterpolationData it is recommended to use a reference system with meters in units, such as UTM.
complete: A flag to indicate that missing variables should be completed using function meteocomplete
verbose: A flag to show information of the reshape process in the console output.
hourly_data: Hourly weather data. In the case of reshapeworldmet, a tibble or data frame returned by function 'importNOAA'. In the case of reshapeweathercan, a tibble or data frame returned by function 'weather_dl' with 'interval="hour"'.
daily_data: Daily weather data (only for reshapeweathercan), a tibble or data frame returned by function 'weather_dl' with 'interval="day"'.

Functions

Details

Note that to have precipitation included in downloads from 'worldmet' you should set 'precip = TRUE' when calling function 'importNOAA'. In the case of weathercan, precipitation is only provided for daily data (i.e. setting 'interval="day"' when calling 'weather_dl'), whereas wind speed and relative humidity are only available for hourly data (i.e., setting 'interval="hour"' when calling 'weather_dl'). Hence, in meteoland we recommend downloading both daily and hourly data and then calling function reshapeweathercan to merge the two sources.
