argo_meta: Load Argo float meta

In ArgoCanada/argodata: Locate, Download, and Read Argo Ocean Float Data

Description

Use argo_meta_*() functions to extract information from Argo meta NetCDF files. Use argo_read_meta_*() to extract information from a single previously-downloaded NetCDF file. Using argo_info() on meta files is also useful for extracting general float information.

Usage

argo_meta_config_param(path, download = NULL, quiet = NA)

argo_meta_missions(path, download = NULL, quiet = NA)

argo_meta_trans_system(path, download = NULL, quiet = NA)

argo_meta_positioning_system(path, download = NULL, quiet = NA)

argo_meta_launch_config_param(path, download = NULL, quiet = NA)

argo_meta_sensor(path, download = NULL, quiet = NA)

argo_meta_param(path, download = NULL, quiet = NA)

Arguments

path	A path relative to the root directory of argo_mirror() or argo_cache_dir(). This value can also be a data.frame with a file column (e.g., a global index as returned by argo_global_meta() and others).
download	A logical vector indicating whether or not a file should be downloaded. Defaults to the value of argo_should_download(), which is TRUE for files that do not exist in the cache.
quiet	Use FALSE to show which files are downloaded and for more verbose error messages.

Value

A tibble::tibble() with

• argo_meta_config_param(): one row per file per configuration parameter and columns file, n_config_param, n_missions, config_parameter_value, and config_parameter_name.

• argo_meta_missions(): one row per file per mission and columns file, n_missions, config_mission_number, and config_mission_comment.

• argo_meta_trans_system(): one row per file per transmission system and columns file, n_trans_system, trans_system, trans_system_id, and trans_frequency.

• argo_meta_positioning_system(): one row per file per positioning system and columns file, n_positioning_system, and positioning_system.

• argo_meta_launch_config_param(): one row per file per launch configuration parameter and columns file, n_launch_config_param, launch_config_parameter_name, and launch_config_parameter_value.

• argo_meta_sensor(): one row per file per sensor and columns file, n_sensor, sensor, sensor_maker, sensor_model, and sensor_serial_no.

• argo_meta_param(): one row per file per parameter and columns file, n_param, parameter parameter_sensor, parameter_units, parameter_resolution, predeployment_calib_equation, predeployment_calib_coefficient, and predeployment_calib_comment.
