oceandata_timeperiod_map: Time periods and abbreviations used in Oceancolor URLs and...

In AustralianAntarcticDataCentre/raadsync: Data Repository Synchronisation

Description

Time periods and abbreviations used in Oceancolor URLs and file names Oceancolor data file URLs need to be mapped to a file system hierarchy that mirrors the one used on the Oceancolor web site. For example, https://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi/l3/V2016044.L3m_DAY_NPP_PAR_par_9km.nc or https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi/getfile/V2016044.L3m_DAY_NPP_PAR_par_9km.nc (obtained from the OceanColor visual browser or file search facility) map to https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/VIIRS/Mapped/Daily/9km/par/2016/V2016044.L3m_DAY_NPP_PAR_par_9km.nc (in the Oceancolor file browse interface). RAADSync will store the local copy of this file as oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/VIIRS/Mapped/Daily/9km/par/2016/V2016044.L3m_DAY_NPP_PAR_par_9km.nc The oceandata_timeperiod_map function maps the URL time period component ("DAY" in this example) to the corresponding directory name ("Daily")

Usage

oceandata_timeperiod_map(abbrev, error_no_match = FALSE)

Arguments

abbrev	string: the time period abbreviation from the URL (e.g. "DAY" for daily, "SCSP" for seasonal spring climatology)
error_no_match	logical: should an error be thrown if the abbrev is not matched?

Value

Either the time period string corresponding to the abbreviation, if abbrev supplied, or a data.frame of all abbreviations and time period strings if abbrev is missing
