Coerce Data Into a lisst Object

Description

If data contains fewer than 42 columns, an error is reported. If it contains more than 42 columns, only the first 42 are used. This is used by read.lisst(), the documentation on which explains the meanings of the columns.

Usage

as.lisst(
  data,
  filename = "",
  year = 0,
  tz = "UTC",
  longitude = NA,
  latitude = NA
)

Arguments

data	A table (or matrix) containing 42 columns, as in a LISST data file.
filename	Name of file containing the data.
year	Year in which the first observation was made. This is necessary because LISST timestamps do not indicate the year of observation. The default value is odd enough to remind users to include this argument.
tz	Timezone of observations. This is necessary because LISST timestamps do not indicate the timezone.
longitude	Longitude of observation.
latitude	Latitude of observation.

Value

A lisst object.
