A suite of utilities to download and process weather data from gridMET (Abatzoglou, 2013).
The basic operations involve choosing and downloading the raw data.
Use the gridmetr_download() to download the data to a folder called data/_variable_name.
gridmetr_download(variables = c("pdsi","erc"),
years = seq.int(2000,2002))
-
Determine why future (parallel) fails within the download function
-
Determine steps to convert to package
-
Provide some visualization utilities
