getColoursGrainType

Grain colours are defined in the <code>grainDict</code> data.frame and the definitions can be changed with <code>setColoursGrainType</code>

Analysis and plotting tools for snow profile data produced from manual snowpack
observations and physical snowpack models. The functions in this package support snowpack
and avalanche research by reading various formats of data (including CAAML, SMET,
generic csv, and outputs from the snow cover model SNOWPACK), manipulate the data, and
produce graphics such as stratigraphy and time series profiles. Package developed by
the Simon Fraser University Avalanche Research Program <http://www.avalancheresearch.ca>.
Graphics apply visualization concepts from Horton, Nowak, and Haegeli (2020,
<doi:10.5194/nhess-20-1557-2020>).

<dd>grain type (character or list of characters)</dd>
<dt>grainDict.</dt>
<dd>lookup table to use. Note, the easiest and best way to do this is via <code>setColoursGrainType</code>. This input variable here
is only a hack to change the grainDict explicitly when calling <code>plot.snowprofile</code> via <code>Col</code>, and beforehand computing
<code>Col = Col &lt;- sapply(Profile$layers$gtype, function(x) getColoursGrainType(x, grainDict = setColoursGrainType('sarp-reduced')))</code>;
This is only necessary in specific environments (e.g. a shiny app)</dd></dl>
