airportMatcher: airportMatcher

In DataStrategist/carbonFootprintR: Calculate the carbon footprint of your event, and find easy ways to offset the emissions

Description

finds the nearest airport to a set of coordinates

Usage

airportMatcher(returnDF, dataSet = "openFlights")

Arguments

returnDF	output of coordinateGetter
dataSet	airport database do you want to use: "openFlights" or "the other one", default = "openFlights

Details

It's a bit tough to know what airports to use, it seems all corpuses are either too detailed or not enough. For now I'm using openflights, might parametrize this later to allow for other airport lists to be selected

Value

a dataframe containing the address, the coordinates of the address, the IATA code of the nearest airport, the distance (in km) to the nearest airport, and the coordinates of the nearest airport
