Details

Download and install the 'MistNet' model file. By default the library is downloaded to data/mistnet_nexrad.pt in the 'tools::R_user_dir("vol2birdR", "data")' directory.

Alternatively, the model file can be downloaded to a different location, which has the advantage that it doesn't have to be redownloaded after a reinstall of 'vol2birdR'.

'vol2birdR' will automatically detect the model file if it is downloaded to /opt/vol2bird/etc/mistnet_nexrad.pt, which can be done as follows

install_mistnet_model(path="/opt/vol2bird/etc/mistnet_nexrad.pt")

Examples

# \donttest{
install_mistnet_model()
