Description

Download the 1D spectrum data from IFREMER ftp

Usage

get_1d_spectrum(point, start = "1994-01-01", end = "1994-02-28")

Arguments

point	the location name (string) requested. Alternatively, the node number. The consistency is checked internally.
start	the starting date (as a string). The consistency is checked internally.
end	the ending date as a string
