getData: Get Climate Data

In cyber4paleo/coorClimR: Get Gridded Climate Data at Individual Space-Time Locations

Description

Get Climate Data

Usage

getData(x, y = "", t = "", producer = "", model = "",
  modelVersion = "", variableType = "", variableUnits = "",
  variablePeriod = "", variablePeriodType = "", averagingPeriod = "",
  averagingPeriodType = "", resolution = "", sampleID = "",
  siteName = "", siteID = "", verbose = T)

Arguments

x	A dataframe with minimum columns names: Latitude, Longitude, Age OR a double precision longitude value. If x is a dataframe, it can also accept columns siteName, sampleID, siteID to preserve object identification through the api call process
y	A double precision latitude coordinate
t	A double precision or integer number representing years before 1950, can be negative to represent time since 1950 API filter parameters
model	A string specifying the model from which the climate data was created. Default = "" (all)
modelVersion	A string representing the model version that produced the output. Default = "" (all)
variableType	A string representing the type of variable to return. Default = "" (all)
variableUnits	A string representing the units in which the variables are measures. Default = "" (all)
variablePeriod	An integer representing the measuring period for the variable. Default = "" (all)
variablePeriodType	A string representing the type of measuring period for the variable. Default = "" (all)
averagingPeriodType	A string representing the type of period over which the data has been averaged. Default = "" (all)
resolution	A double precision value representing the native resolution at which the climate data was produced and stored. Default = "" (all)
sampleID	A string or integer identifier for the sample at the space-time location. Default = "" (none)
siteName	A string or integer identifier for the site at the x-y location of the sample. Default = "" (none)
siteID	A string or integer identifier for the site at the x-y location of the sample. Default = "" (none)
averaingPeriod	An integer representing the period of which the data has been averaged. Default= "" (all)

Value

Outputs a data.frame representation of the api response. Columns: From Database: variableunits, variablePeriodType, VariableType, variableID, Producer, sourceID, ModelVersion, tableName, VariableDescription, averagingPeriod, averagingPeriodType, Model, tableName Optional Identifiers: siteName, sampleID, siteID Response Values: value, latitude, longitude, yearsBP

Examples

## Create some data
t <- rbind(c(1, -122, 37, 1000), c(2, -100, 38, 1000))
t <- data.frame(t)
names(t) <- c("sampleID", "Longitude", "Latitude", "Age")
getData(t)
