hddtools: Hydrological Data Discovery Tools
hddtools stands for Hydrological Data Discovery Tools. This R package
is an open source project designed to facilitate access to a variety of
online open data sources relevant for hydrologists and, in general,
environmental scientists and practitioners.
This typically implies the download of a metadata catalogue, selection
of information needed, a formal request for dataset(s), de-compression,
conversion, manual filtering and parsing. All those operations are made
more efficient by re-usable functions.
Depending on the data license, functions can provide offline and/or
online modes. When redistribution is allowed, for instance, a copy of
the dataset is cached within the package and updated twice a year. This
is the fastest option and also allows offline use of package’s
functions. When re-distribution is not allowed, only online mode is
provided.
Installation
Get the stable version from CRAN:
install.packages("hddtools")
Or the development version from GitHub using the package remotes:
install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("ropensci/hddtools")
Load the hddtools package:
library("hddtools")
Data sources and Functions
The package contains functions to interact with the data providers
listed below. For examples of the various functionalities see the
vignette.
-
KGClimateClass: The Koppen
Climate Classification map is used for classifying the world’s
climates based on the annual and monthly averages of temperature and
precipitation. -
GRDC: The Global Runoff Data Centre
(GRDC) provides datasets for all the major rivers in the world. -
Data60UK: The Data60UK
initiative collated datasets of areal precipitation and streamflow
discharge across 61 gauging sites in England and Wales (UK). -
MOPEX: This dataset
contains historical hydrometeorological data and river basin
characteristics for hundreds of river basins in the US. -
SEPA: The Scottish
Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) provides river level data for
hundreds of gauging stations in the UK.
