In StoXProject/RstoxFDA: Fisheries Dependent Analysis with RstoX

Set time Biotic

Description

This function is deprecated, and may be replaced by TranslateBiotic, with VariableName: stationstarttime, and TranslationTable: ⁠[{"stationstarttime":"function(stationstarttime) is.na(stationstarttime)","NewValue":"12:00:00.000Z"}]⁠

Usage

SetTimeBiotic(BioticData, Time = character(), Overwrite = F)

Arguments

BioticData	BioticData data for which time should be set
Time	character encoding time. Defaults to 12:00:00Z if not given, otherwise provide UTC-time formatted as strptime-string: ⁠%H:%M:%SZ, e.g. 12:00:00Z⁠
Overwrite	if True any existing values in stationstarttime will be overwritten.

Details

Set start time to a fixed time for all stations. Appropriate when BioticData is read from NMDbiotic.

Set the column 'stationstarttime' on the table 'fishstation' in BioticData to a fixed time.

Setting a fixed time to stationstarttime facilitates conversion to StoxBioticData using StoxBiotic, and is applicable if hourly resolution of date and time is not necessary for subsequent analysis.

'stationstarttime' is on the table 'fishstation' in data originating from NMDBiotic (http://www.imr.no/formats/nmdbiotic/). For bioticdata that does not conform to this, no modifications are done.

Value

BioticData
