plotSensor: Plot wind speed/direction as a time series

In nwagenbrenner/windtools: Tools to process and visualize wind data

Description

plotSensor returns speed and/or direction time series as a ggplot2 object

Usage

plotSensor(df, sensor, var = "speed", dir_symbol = "vector",
  threshold = NULL)

Arguments

df	dataframe
sensor	name of sensor ('plot')
var	variable to plot ('speed', 'direction', or 'both')
dir_symbol	symbol to use for direction if var=='both'.
threshold	threshold speed to indicate with horizontal bar; only shown when speed is plotted

Details

This fucntion creates a ggplot2 object of wind speed and/or direction vs. time for a single sensor. If var=='both' and dir_symbol != 'vector', direction will be plotted as points. This object includes two y-axes and is created using gtable and cannot be captured by the function; instead it is drawn when the function runs. All other plots are returned as ggplot2 objects.

Value

ggplot2 object (unless var=='both' and dir_sybmol != 'vector')

Examples

data(wind)
plotSensor(wind, 'R26', var='both')
