mc_states_replace: Replace values by states with tag

Description

This function replace values of sensors by states with tag.

Usage

mc_states_replace(data, tags, replace_value = NA, crop_margins_NA = FALSE)

Value

myClim object in the same format as input, with replaced values

Arguments

data

myClim object see myClim-package

tags

tag assigned to the the sensor values to be replaced. e.g. "error"

replace_value

(default NA) The value which will be written into sensor.

crop_margins_NA

if TRUE function crops NAs on the beginning or end of time-series (default FALSE)

Details

The typical use of this function is for deleting/removing error/compromised records from time-series by tagging them and then replacing tagged values with NA. Typically, when error/unwanted data appears at the beginning or end of time series, it can be useful to crop time-series (delete records completely) using crop_margins_NA.

Examples

states <- data.frame(locality_id="A1E05", logger_name="Thermo_1",
                     sensor_name="Thermo_T", tag="error",
                     start=lubridate::ymd_hm("2020-10-28 9:00"),
                     end=lubridate::ymd_hm("2020-10-28 9:30"))
data <- mc_states_insert(mc_data_example_clean, states)
data <- mc_states_replace(data, "error")
