RainSEPA | R Documentation |
Extract hourly rainfall data from SEPA's API.
RainSEPA(StationName, From = "2022-10-01", To = "ToDate")
StationName |
The name of the station for which you want rainfall. If you type something other than one of the available stations, the list of stations will be returned. |
From |
A start date for the data in the form of "YYYY-MM-DD". |
To |
An end date for the data in the form of "YYYY-MM-DD". The default is the most recent date available. |
If the "From" date used is significantly before (approx. 30 years) the start of the available data, the function will fail with an error message saying the connection cannot be opened.
A data.frame with POSIXct in the first column, and rainfall in the second column. Unless the StationName provided is not in the available list, then the available list is returned.
