In htsr: Hydro-Meteorology Time-Series

Convert a Meteo-France csv hourly basic data file into a htsr sqlite base

Description

Convert a Meteo-France csv (or csv.gz) hourly data file into a htsr sqlite base. It regards the "basic" data file, which includes precipitation, temperature and wind data. The csv file shall be downloaded from https://meteo.data.gouv.fr/

Usage

d_convert_meteofrance_h(fmeteo, ncsv)

Arguments

fmeteo	Name of the sqlite data base, extension not needed.
ncsv	Number of csv files to process

Details

The sensors have an additional prefix h (as hourly) in order to distinguish them from sensors with another time reference.

The processing considers the binding of several successive cvs files. They must be selected in the chronologic order.

The following variables are considered:

RR1: amount of precipitation in 1h (mm)

DRR1: duration of precipitation (mn)

FF: 10mn averaged wind velocity at 10m high (m/s)

DD: direction of FF (in deg)

FXY: max of FF in 1h

DXY: direction of FXY

HXY: time of FXY (hhmm)

FXI: max wind velocity at 10m high (m/s)

DXI: direction of FXI

HXI: time of FXI

FF2: 10mn averaged wind velocity at 2m high (m/s)

DD2: direction of FF2 (in deg)

FXI2: max wind velocity at 10m high (m/s)

DXI2: direction of FXI2

HXI2: time of FXI2

FXI3S: 3s averaged max wind velocity (m/s)

DXI3S: direction of FXI3S

HXI3S: time of FXI3S

T: instantaneous temperature (deg C)

TD: temperature of dew point (deg C)

TN: min temperature in the hour

HTN: time of TN

TX: max temperature in the hour HTX:time of TX

U: relative humidity (

UN: min U in the hour

HUN: time of UN

UX: max U in the hour

HUX: time of UX

PSTAT: pressure at the station (hPa)
