refARPSnc: Extract/calculate and georeferences meteo params from an ARPS...

In gisma/aRps: Analyzing and visualizing Arps model runs output

Description

The information of the projection is calculated using the informations as derived by the gdalinfo call of the ARPS netcdf file. Currently only "lambert_conformal_conic" and 'latlong' is supported. getRefInfo provides all missing projection values of an ARPS netCDF file

Usage

refARPSnc(file)

Arguments

file	ARPS netCDF file

Value

refARPSnc returns the correctly georeferenced and formated ARPS netCDF file and adds windspeed and -direction and some basic thermodynamic variables

If you want to use this data in a GIS or otherwise georeferenced you need to extract the projection and domain extent according to the reference system that was used by ARPS getRefInfo

Examples

 #### Example to georeference an ARPS netCDF 3.0 file and to calculate some important meteo params

arps.ncfile=system.file("kili.nc", package="aRps")
 nc <- nc_open(arps.ncfile)
refARPSnc(arps.ncfile)
