An R package for reading ICARTT time-series files
This package is for reading and interacting with files in the ICARTT (International Consortium for Atmospheric Research on Transport and Transformation) format. From ICARTT File Format Standards V2.0:
"The ICARTT file format is text-based and composed of a header section (metadata) with critical data description information (e.g., data source, uncertainties, contact information, and brief overview of measurement technique), and a data section. Although it was primarily designed for airborne data, the ICARTT format proved to be practical for other mobile and ground-based studies and various data types."
This package is still in its infancy. Major to-dos: add example data, test on various machines. Currently only handles one-dimensional time-series data (FFI: 1001).
Functions:
read.ict() - reading in an ICARTT file as a data frame
ict.header() - parsing header and providing informative labels
ict.varnames() - printing variable names/units
ict.var() - extracting variable values by name
ict.flightpath() - plotting simple flight path
ict.to.csv() - converting ICARTT file to CSV
ict.to.json() - converting ICARTT file to JSON
Examples to come at some point!
